SuzySaid - Darien, CT Edition

Now that the shock of September is over (kind of), Suzy has decided to embrace one of the joys of Fall.  APPLES! Surprisingly, they are here already and ripe for the picking. Perhaps, if practice begins now, the perfect home baked pie might arrive in time for the Holidays...

Take it from Suzy:  After a major pie mishap, on her part, it is clear that you must be sure to have tasted your own abilities before you gift them.

If you are looking to pick, bake or gift you have to visit www.ctapples.com. You can find all things apple. From how to cook them, store them and what varieties there are to what they are good for. (ie eating vs. baking)  

There are a ton of pick-your-own across Connecticut (all listed on ctapples) here are a few in Fairfield County:
