By now, your favorite little humans are back to school and hopefully you’ve settled into some semblance of normalcy with the chaos of Back to School time!

We’ve got a few that are within driving distance to us and I love this time to get some delicious fall treats and fresh apples!

You can head to your favorite orchard for supplies and then come back home to enjoy the treat whenever your little heart desires! So, head to the Apple Orchard or your local Commissary and grab some Apple Cider because you’re in a for a refreshing treat with our Cider Storm SLUSHi.
