Dried Apple Ring Fever!

It all started with a bizarre math story problem. Zach was making a popcorn snack. But he decided to add dried apple rings to the mix. As we worked through the problem, it was difficult not to laugh about the flavor combination! So the next time we encountered the problem, we used math manipulatives: dried apple rings and popcorn (Thanks, Kamilla!)... 

Nobody really enjoyed the dried apple rings. But now I had a 5 lb bag of them. So I hydrated them and spiced them up with some cloves and a real vanilla bean.
Some were brave enough to try them again but... apple tart is not the most kid-friendly of sweet treats. Oh well! I will find a way to use the rest of the enormous bag soon.
