Boy am I tired!!

Well today was spent doing tons of cooking and baking. The girls picked out two recipes for desserts this week to use up some apples. Oldest did so much peeling and coring she got a blister on her finger. She was a great help with that chore. Youngest mostly just stayed out of the way but she did help with the shopping of some items needed for our all day cooking and baking Sunday. Hubby made applesauce and helped me out. I made two batches of apple butter. Not sure of the amount that will result as not in canning jars yet. Made 5 1-quart jars of tomatoe sauce. Finally found a recipe that I liked (thanks to the book "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle"). Made 3 dozen apple cookies-one for eating now, one for eating next week and one for freezing. Didn't like the recipe as the cookies kept sticking even with greasing the cookie sheets. Have other ones to try next time. Made an apple upside down cake that was a hit by all. Loved cooking and baking all day and the wonderful results but boy am I tired!!
