Discussion yesterday about the best apples for eating - tops of my list: honey crisp is my fave of the moment and we always love fuji and braeburn. I also like those green transparent apples that come early on in the season.Today Jamie and I drove to Kits & walked to the Granville Island Market to buy some more apples - honey crisps, of course. Super crunchy, moist & sweet-tart. Normally we walk from home, but I have a sore throat, so I'm being a sucky baby.
If you're in Vancouver (or coming for a visit!) I give you the best fruit & veg stand in the market. I am not even sure of their name, but the sign is in the picture above. They have a stand in the middle of the market right now between Duso's cheese shop and the atm machine, and they sometimes move around. Their fruit & veg are direct from the Okanogan, and they specialize in apples - all of which are unwaxed and very fresh.
As you can see, Jamie & I are super stoked about the big bag o' apples! Fall-tacular and crunch-ilicious!

Could you please email me this picture of you & Jamie and perhaps the other one of you two that is posted at the beginning of the blog? Thanks and have a good rest.
I was reading about the healing power of honey...so great for sore throats and just add a "little" lemon and you'll be set@:)
I'll definitely send them over to you!
Jamie must have been reading your mind - he added a generous amount of creamed honey to the apple cider vinegar drink. I'll get him to add in a dash of lemon next time too! I used our last one in our roasting chicken! :-)
One good apple. I thought that the Fuji apple was the best but now I have some serious competition for my apple affection, the honey crisp is delicious and crunchy!
