There's an apple I miss from back home - the Russett apple and in the way that greengages were a sign of high summer in my youth so were Russetts a sign of Autumn. Ah, me! Nostalgia rules!
Blue ~ funny how things like that brink back such a flood of memories. What I loved about these apple was how "real" they were. . . oddly shaped and funny looking. Perfect.
A bit more from our day in Virginia, visiting Stratford Hall. The apple trees were in full glory, braches straining under the weight of a bumper crop.
Thats right, apple season is soon to be upon us. Goodie!
