The Great BIG #AppleWeek #Sponsors, Prize Packages, and #Giveaway

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of the sponsors of #AppleWeek 
Products for recipe development and review were provided, prizes were donated for the giveaway, 
and this page may contain affiliate links.

The wonderful, generous, and talented Carlee of Cooking with Carlee wrangled a big group of foodie bloggers to post and share recipes featuring apples. All. Week. Long. So, this coming week, we launch #AppleWeek. But I wanted to share a little bit about our sponsors, the prize packages that some lucky readers will win, and information about the giveaway (at the bottom).


My family and I are fortunate to live near some wonderful, organic apple orchards. So, each Fall, we go and pick a ton. We haven't gone this year, but here are some shots from years past...


And, if you're ever lucky enough, to get your hands on some Pink Pearl apples, do! They are my personal favorite. Not only are they princess-pink, but they are the perfect balance of sweet and tart. I love them. Aren't they pretty?!?


But, now, on to the real reason you're reading this: Look at what our event sponsors have contributed as prizes for our lucky readers.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found."

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems !
