That’s looking like the last big harvest of the year. Still have about 25 or so in various stages of green that I will pick as I need, but that is the last big picking this year. Oh well, on to other things.
The local apple orchard is back open for the fall, and I picked up a new apple I had never had before- the sweet maia, and it is one of the sweetest apples I have ever had. Maia actually stands for the midwest apple improvement association, and the “sweet maia” is a cross between a wintercrisp and a honey crisp. It’s a smaller apple, very dense, with a ruby red coloring, and very crisp and extremely sweet, but with a good bit of what I call the essence of apple. They are very good!
Watergirl has uploaded the stickers and yard signs, but they are not quite ready for sale with the shop still creating problems, but I thought you all would like to see a preview:
VERY EXCITING!!!
Update from WG: Look for more options in two comments below at #50-something.
Other than that, not much going on here. Shoulder hurts, Rosie is pissy, Max is a dick, Steve is chill. The usual. Did have a little chuckle at Joelle’s expense because she waited late to go to the pool thinking she would have it all to herself, got there at 3:55, and was promptly told the pool was closing. Which totally sucks because now she has to pedal back home in Arizona hit. She told me and I called her a “big dummy,” she said “Did you just Fred Sanford me?” and that made me think of just how awesome 70’s and 80’s theme songs were:
Quincy Jones. What a talent.
