Today, for Lippe’s last day in Rochester, we went to another favorite place: Schutt’s Cider Mill.

Schutt's Cider Mill
It was a cold, snowy day, so there weren’t very many people there.

Lippe selecting apples
First, we got apples for lunches and snacks this week, Northern Spy for me, and Crispin and Fortune for Andy.

Lippe, cider and donuts
Then, we picked up two half-gallons of freshly pressed cider.
Just as we reached the cash register counter, one of the staff brought out a tray of hot doughnuts (or, as they say in western New York, “fried cakes”). We each had one. Lippe selected a plain doughnut, and I had one that had been dipped in cinnamon and sugar.
Then, it was back to the house to pack up Lippe’s belongings for the next stage of his trip: to visit @mattiedog in Seattle.
Bon voyage, Lippe!
