Because the mornings are single digit temperatures now, in lieu of our beach trips, we went apple picking an organic orchard today, dressed to match Solon’s self-proclaimed “noir” outfit; black leggings and a charcoal sweater. I found a nearby organic orchard available for Lobo and Macintosh u-pick apples. We had our lunch—a chickpea stew with brown rice and homemade spelt bread—on a picnic table in the middle of the orchard. It was so quiet we heard the apples falling from the trees and the happiness of crickets. I love engaging in those family-type activities that make you feel like a collective and make memories for your child. These trips become part of a family story we narrativize before naps or during snack time.
