It was great to see a small bin of local apples at the Co-op in Pugwash this morning. Gravensteins from an apple farm in Malagash.
It was even better to see how ripe and lumpy these apples were. They are real apples! With uneven shapes. With no waxy coating. With stumpy little stems. And a wonderful deep red colour.
An absolutely delightful thing of beauty. It's almost a shame to peel them and cut them up for a carrot-apple cake.
Almost.
Pugwash still has a Co-op? Somebody send out a documentary crew.... we need to record this for posterity.
