Amherst Apple Festival and Crafts Fair

This is an annual apple festival (this year was year #21), without apples! No apples anywhere! And, not in any recipes… no apple cider, apple turnovers, apple dumplings, or apple pie.
There were hot dogs, coffee from the local Pierce Bros. (pretty good), and Kettle Corn, but NO apples! What a shock!
There were also, as promised in the title, local artisans selling reasonably-​priced local honey in bars of soap and lotion, stained glass, goat’s milk soap, and Emu oil soap (ick!), pottery, clothing, angora scarves (with the Angora Bunny right there in a big cage!), as well as kids activities.
This was like a country fair, and really cute in the town green, but we were slightly disappointed because we wanted some apples or something delicious with apples.
So, we went home and drank our apple cider. Sometimes what you want is what you have! ;)
