I made the apple jelly from the Pomona package insert, boiling about 2 cups of sage leaves with the apples. After making 6, 4 oz. jars of it plain, I stirred some of this Raz el Hanout (sent to me from France by someone lovely), toasted onion granules, and black pepper into what was left, and got 4 jars of that. I just enjoyed the bit left in the pan with cream cheese and water crackers and let me tell you- YUM.
The little sage sprigs went into the jars to be all supercute.
First Canadian Apple Store Opening at Yorkdale, Toronto. Opening was May 21, 2005, I was number 390 in this line.

Keeping my fingers crossed that pollination was successful. We had a few cold mornings with the flowers and leaves actually covered in hoar frost and I didn't see a whole lot of pollinators buzzing about doing their business. So we'll see how things develop over the next few weeks and months.
If pollination went well, the receptacle on these flowers will swell into an accessory fruit, with the inferior ovary forming the apple's core containing the seeds. The stamens and sepals you see here on top of the swelling receptacles can often still be found buried into the top center of ripe apples.
