Whose hubby is the best hubby in the world?

Ok, so I know the title of this post is mushy…but when your hubby does what mine did today, you’ve got to do something to show him he’s appreciated, right?

My parents brought down three bushels of apples for Stu to make some more applesauce with.  I headed down to Roanoke with my friend April, her daughter and Alexander in tow, and we when shopping for the day while Stu worked on the sauce.

He started at 7:00 this morning, finished at 5:00, and the final outcome looked something like this: 

I helped him load these containers up.

This was the sauce already done when I got home.

This is the sauce he had cooling to put in the rest of the containers.

In case you can’t count that high, we ended up with 44 more containers on top of the 17 he made the other weekend.  Eight gallons of applesauce!  I proceeded to eat about two gallons of it for dinner.  I hope we have enough to last through next weekend!

Oh, and because Stu is so wonderful, I stopped by our favorite donut shop, Blue Collar Joe’s, on the way home (it’s about an hour down to this donut shop, so we don’t do it too often), to get him a surprise thank you gift.  Feast your eyes on these beauties!
