Yesterday Shari was gone to a scrap-booking marathon, so I decided to take the kids out and get some apples and go for a drive in my new convertible (actually it’s not new, it’s a 1999 VW Cabrio). Forgive the photo quality. The photos were taken with my phone camera.
We headed out for Kapnick Orchards in Tecumseh, but along the way I remembered reading about a local cheese shop in Tecumseh called The Boulevard Market. Not only are they extremely helpful and knowledgeable, they have some amazing cheeses. In addition to a wide selection of cheeses from all over the world (I tried a 5 year gouda that was simply amazing), they make their own cheese. I bought some of their delicious goat cheese made from locally produced goat milk, some Amsterdam Reserve, 
and some of the 5 Year Gouda from Holland. Of course I couldn’t resist the build your own 6-pack beer deal going on either…
Then we were on to Kapnick’s. We picked 2 pecks of Mitzu apples, bought a half gallon of cider (they have the unpasteurized variety that hardens nicely), and the kids got cider slushies.
All-in-all, the kids and I had a blast, not only of fun, but of wind in the hair.
