Here's a little Apple info for everyone:
Apple Equivalents: 1 large apple = 2 cups sliced or chopped = 1 1/2 cups finely chopped =1 1/4 cups grated = 3/4 cup sauce. 1 medium apple = 1 1/3 cups sliced or chopped = 1 cup finely chopped = 3/4 cup grated = 1/2 cup sauce. 1 small apple = 3/4 cup sliced or chopped = 3/4 cup finely chopped = 1/2 cup grated = 1/3 cup sauce. 1 pound apples = 4 small apples or 3 medium apples or about 2 large apples 1 (9" or 10") pie = 2-1/2 pounds (4 to 5 large or 6 to 7 medium or 8 to 9 small apples) Peck = 10-1/2 pounds Bushel = 42 pounds (yields 20-24 quarts of applesauce)
Funny how if you google History of Apples the first items you get are about the history of Apple Computer. A sign of our times?

I would love to play, made a new Apple recipe last night. Streusel topped caramel apple pie. It is so good! Thanks for the Apple info Linda, that is handy to know.
Hugs Julie

Sounds yummy Julie!!!
Is there a specific size recipe card that we should do? I usually do 3x5, but can certainly do 4x6 or whatever is preferable... Wanted to check before I start embellishing it :)

Good question, Shannon. CeeJay's recipe and recipe holder swap specifies 3x5" but this one doesn't. Maybe it doesn't matter?

WOO HOO!!! I scored apple items for my kitchen and apron today. At the flea market, I found an apple and strawberry tablecloth I will use for an apron. At a thrift store I found an apple box with handle and cutout apples on 2 sides; a wooden painted apple cutout; a wooden plaque with an apple, a crock/lid, and "This Kitchen seasoned with Love" on it; and a 40" long x 5-1/2" wide bell-pull-like tapestry with apples on it.
Here is just 1/4 of the tablecloth. I can make one quarter into a very easy apron.

Hi Winnie! I have been wanting to try one of the swaps but the really crafty and heirloom recipe ones kind of intimidate me. I do pretty well with livestock and farm chores but I haven't quite mastered the crafty and cooking aspects of being a Farmgirl. Maybe I didn't get those genes but I'm working on it! I do have a decent apple pie recipe so I think I'll give this one a try as my first swap. Count me in! Is this all I need to do to sign up or do you need anything else from me?

Here's my first Apple apron. It is a very simple apron using a vintage tablecloth. It is bordered in strawberries and has apples prominent in the fruit basket plus other fruits. Hmmmmm - An apple and strawberry pie sounds interesting.
![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/09/2015-09-08_134816(2).jpg?v 42524323) If I want, I could make 3 more like this out of the same tablecloth. Or I can make aprons that are a little different.
