Apple Picking Bilpin

There is something so exciting about picking fruit to take home with you. So with that in mind we headed up to Bilpin in the Blue Mountains near Kurrajong just over an hours drive from Sydney. The sun was shining we had a picnic basket in the car so our day was set.

There were Sundowner, Pink Lady and Granny Smiths to pick, It was tempting to fill our baskets with these sweet tasting apples, but as we are a family of 3 we resisted the temptation, still there is no room in the fruit crisper, veggie crisper or the bottom shelf of the fridge.

Master M thought there was nothing better than eating apples straight from the tree.

As the apples were being weighed up and I got talking to the owner of the Orchard we were given a bag full of cooking apples to take for free, now I will have to start looking to see what I can make with all these apples we have.
