I just wanted to show you my apples.  These are Granny Smith apples.

They are what I use to make my apple pies.  It seems that this tree will have enough apples for at least one pie.  That is if all goes well over the next 4 months.  No birds eating them, or bugs, or a freeze, or hail.  I'm sure I could think of a few more bad things that could happen...but I don't want to bring the wrath of the Universe down on my poor, helpless apples.  I will think good thoughts, and hope for the best. 

I want something special to make pies out of for my Fair entry.  I want to pull down a Blue ribbon this year.  Maybe even best of division, or Judge's choice.  Then I can say 'Award winning Apple pie'.  I can say that now...it just isn't a blue ribbon. 

I have taken a second place award.  Three times.  It just needs to 'look' more pretty.  The taste is already there. 

It tastes like love.
