Last fall, my residential college (the best residential college at Yale, of course) had caramel apple makings set out in the dining hall one night – crockpots simmering with melted caramel, nuts and sprinkles for decorating, craft sticks for that authentic caramel apple look, and, of course, lots and lots of apples.

I don’t know if we’ll be able to do something like that again since our college is currently under renovation and our dining hall nonexistent, but I sure hope so! And I’ve already fired off an email asking about it. If we do, I want to try these recipes from Chow.com for Tricked Out Caramel Apples.

In fact, I may not wait until then. I’ve got band Go Away this weekend (because the band never retreats; we just go away), and we’re going apple picking on Sunday, so I’ll have lots of apples soon. What I won’t have, however, is time. Yay midterms…
