Holiday Tradition *JULIAN PIE COMPANY*
November 25, 2009
Every Thanksgiving, my family and I make a trip out to Julian, Ca. to buy some awesome apple pie. Julian seriously has the best apples—its climate is ideal for growing them. Julian apples are the perfect balance of sweet and tart.
We always order a bunch of pies for Thanksgiving day. But, we also eat a slice at the shop. My favorite? Dutch apple pie with sharp cheddar cheese melted on top. Mmmmmm. Be sure to try the creamy hot chocolate (“It’s like hot melted ice cream”) and the Apple Memories.
Julian’s a fun place to ride on a carriage pulled by a mini-horse (I actually thought this was kind of sad—such a small horse!)…
…check out the pretty trees…enjoy the cool, crisp air…
…or check out the Julian Book Store (one of my favs—LOVE the way the floor creaks, LOVE the old book smell). This book is OBVIOUSLY not about me.
What’s your holiday tradition?
