Apple Haus

We love autumn. We hope to include apple-picking in future autumns, but knew we probably weren't going to be doing that this year, so a few weeks ago we decided to make a visit to the Apple Haus to satisfy all of our apple-flavored cravings this year. It's located in overly adorable Long Grove, so we enjoyed an afternoon of walking around looking at all the little shops and such, too.

We got some treats to bring home (apple butter, apple-cranberry bread) and some to enjoy right away (the best apple cider doughnuts we've had in a while):
