All School Picnic, Sept 30 2016

We made applesauce, yum!

We made applesauce with gala apples, water, sugar and a pinch of cinnamon. It was so much fun cutting the apple slices into bite size pieces.

It took 4 hours for the applesauce to be ready. Our class room smelled of applesauce. We could not wait to taste the applesauce. We are outside, eagerly waiting to taste the applesauce.

 Finally, we got to taste the applesauce. It was so yummy!
