Apples are one of my absolute favourite fruits. I sometimes go through periods where I eat so many that I’ll get slightly sick of them. But I always come back, because apples are just so good! I love how sweet, crunchy, and juicy they are. Plus, they make for such a convenient snack to throw in my bag for busy days out.
During my undergraduate studies, we would go apple picking every autumn. We would travel to a local orchard, wander through the trees, and pick ripe apples off the branches, snacking as we went. Of course, we always brought back a big bag of apples as well, and spent the rest of the day cooking up apple pie and apple crumble. The evening would involve settling down to watch a film and enjoy our tasty desserts.
