Pics and Applesauce in the Crockpot

Just a couple things on my mind today:
- I hate to say it, but Raleigh's potty training is going really well (knock on wood!!!!!)
- I can't remember what else I was going to say.

 Anyway, try out this crockpot applesauce recipe if you haven't yet:  (did I blog this already??)
- Peel and quarter lots of apples (I can usually only do 4-6 because my hand gets tired, but more is better because this stuff doesn't last long once it's done!  4-6 apples makes about 3 cups)
- Throw them in the crockpot, squirt on some lemon juice (I'm going to be really technical and say 4-6 squirts should do it), two or so spoonfuls of brown sugar (big spoons, in my case... just because I like it), a capful of vanilla and a half a cup of water.  This has got to be precise.  I'm joking, it's pretty much foolproof.  Put your crockpot on high if you want it done fast or low if you want to wait in agony all day.  It should take about 2 hours or so until the apples are mushy and wonderful.  Just mash 'em up with a spoon or fork, but not your hand because it will be really hot : )  Ok I'm being silly, anyway, it's delicious.  We like it warm, but cold is alright too.
EDIT:  ALSO ADD 4-6 shakes of Cinnamon!!!

Yum, even Trenty loved it.  It's one of those treats where you say "just one more bite" over and over again and then all the sudden it's gone and you say "dangit!  I ate it all!".  Just speaking from experience here!
