After a Sunday afternoon of take out Chinese food while putting together two major items like the coffee station (successful) and a new router (which was NOT successful), we decided to go to Lynd's market in the country to pick apples--well, not pick -pick, but to buy picked apples.  Well it was a hootenanny that greeted us. The one- counter simple outdoor/indoor market had been replaced and a new large arena greeted us.  Lines of people every where (and they said this was not a busy Sunday...we just don't know busy at Lynd's.) People sitting at tables and eating and picnicking on the small hills of still green grass.  Kettle corn a-poppin, and apples of every kind.  Have you ever seen a red fleshed apple, well here it is!

The apple peeled and unpeeled.  It is sharp and crisp.  I've just put it in a tart, with walnuts and yellow delicious apples to see how it turns out. The suggestion is to use it for candied apples. Note:  My family does not care for these red fleshed apples.  The tart was only half gone.  I will make applesauce from the rest of the apples and use that in cakes.  I would not buy them again.

 Also, in this picture is a squash a bit like the acorn but with another name, which I forget, and a subtle difference in taste.

 Ahh, the mustard shown here (new product too) which I get at Stalin's in Cincinnati for $7.29 a tube but now I have found it on line for around $5. to $5.95 a tube.(Never mind, with shipping it comes out more than the cost from Stalin's) Love these tubes of this very spicy mustard that we are now craving on everything and which is inserted in many of our hearty dishes. Spelled: Superscharfer senf.   Delicious.  And, look at the peppers.  We thought we were good at growing peppers, but, really...these are peppers!

Our new marble topped coffee station.  Beth put it together.  Thank you, Beth.

LikeTake soft white bread, cut off the crusts.  Roll out each slice to make it very thin.  Lay a slice of cheese on each piece of bread and roll up tightly.  Smush down the end of the roll to keep it in place or use a bit of egg wash or water to keep it sealed,  Use a skillet to make these rolls the same way you would normally make grilled cheese.  Think of the possibilities: use with salads, chili, tomato soups...endless.
