So when I finally remember and decide to eat and cut it open, it is all smooshy and rotten already. Such a bad habit of mine, wasting food.

Sorry, I don't remember what they were. To pick, we needed to twist the apple at its segment to the branch and not tear the branch.<br /><br />V, you went with your mom! So cool.

I learned that that translucent streak in the apples is what makes a really sweet apple. I think they called it honey.

I dislike it when the apple is mushy or mealy or when it tastes overripe. <br /><br />IzsmomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
