Applesauce

I love watching cooking shows. My favorite part is when they use those little glass bowls full of premeasured ingredients. Doesn't that make cooking look so easy? Sometimes I wonder where the minimum wage, overworked, probably starved, frazzled haired worker is that is measuring out 2 Tbsp. of sugar, a pinch of salt and an "eyeball it" of whatever. You never see them. Just Martha, or Rachel or whomever. Anyway. I can't watch cooking shows, but I do get a kick out of some of the blogs out there that show pictures of all of the ingredients for a recipe. It just looks so neat and organized. Sometimes I like to feel neat and organized too. So on Saturday when I made applesauce I took pictures! Aren't you thrilled? Just humor me or find another site. :)

Step 1: I love apples. Take away the brown spots and don't you just smile?

Part II: I also love the smell of apples cooking. I like this picture because it just looks domestic. The big pot, the wooden spoon. I can still smell it.

Section C: The Machine. This thing is incredible. It belongs to my grandma, but maybe I'll get one for Christmas. I can't help but wonder what would happen if I ran something other than apples thru it. Hummm...

Finally: The finished product. (or part of it) Success. Sorry no picture of the canning process, which I think might be my favorite part. Oh well.

So much for Cooking with Sabrina. Be sure to watch my next show when I tell you about the Cream of Celery soup I made for supper. It's titled "What was I thinking?!"
