What Is Orange Sauce Made Of?

When we house hunted, we dreamed of living in an old house with lots of character – nooks and crannies, pocket doors, and maybe a turret. We ended up in brand new construction with no character, but also no maintenance or rehab required; practicality won over sentiment. Not only was the charm missing, but we also had no trees. We learned that there used to be an apple orchard on our lot, but those trees and any other trees that might have been on the property were long gone.

We began the process of bringing back trees to our lot last year. We planted three apple trees (which are blooming for the first time right now – fingers crossed for apples in the fall) and a redbud tree.
