Sugar Rush

So, we go to the apple orchard, get fresh air and exercise, and pick lots of healthy treats. What shall we do? I know! Cover them in sugar!

The idea of caramel apples sent the kids into sugar induced ecstasy, and they willingly helped with all the sticky, icky steps of the process.

First, we had to unwrap all those caramels, and melt them.
Then we had to drop in the washed and dried apples...
...swirl them around in the caramel...And pull them out of the quicksand-like goo.Sure, our hands got sticky, but the rewards were sweet indeed! Now all I have to do is get rid of them before the kids try to actually eat them all. Anyone want one???
