I love apples! Anything apples; apple pie, apple cider, apple sauce, apple bread, baked apples, or Indian chicken with apple curry gravy! I love them all!
When I was young we would always go to Fifers Apple Orchards, on cool crispy fall mornings, when the frosted grass would crunch under your feet. All their best and prettiest apples were cleaned and polished and kept inside, making the shelves shine with their beautiful colors. But outside was where they would keep crates of seconds, anything not perfectly colored or perfectly shaped anything bruised. I will always remember those cold mornings, talking with my mom picking through apples with numb red fingers and happily leaving with two bushel bags of deliciousness. Those apples would last us months and months, and I would eat them everyday.
My dream would be to someday have a couple of apple trees in my backyard.
I know apples are more of an autumn thing, but I've been craving them recently and I couldn't help but talk about it.
