2009 Apple Harvest Festival Dished Up Great Food and Fun in the Core of Downtown Waynesville, NC.

The 2009 Apple Harvest Festival Saturday, on Downtown Waynesville’s Main Street, was festive and very 'crisp,' with people bundled in jackets, carrying umbrellas (umbrellas are scary things when you like to wear wigs), and sampling all the yummy festival food.

Like to eat apples, fudge, sizzling sausages, turkey legs, and Holy Smoke barbecue? I tasted, among other things, the ‘finished’ molasses product extracted by the gentleman in the video feeding sorghum into a press, and would love to have a jar of fresh molasses for myself (he wasn’t selling any). What a difference between ‘fresh’ and store-bought molasses.

I'm in search of the recipe for the blue ribbon winner of the “2009 Apple Bake-Off” (see the video below).
