Making Cider With Mike and Kathleen

We participated in one of my favorite harvest activities today...making fresh apple cider.  Mike and Kathleen bought a cider press from Don Wolf but hadn't used it yet.  I kept offering to "help" so they finally decided to take us up on the offer.  It was a gorgeous day and the cider (from Melrose apples) was so nice.  We had leftover soups in the fridge so we provided dinner.  All in all, not a bad way to spend an afternoon!
