FALL and HALLOWEEN.... Day 27

On Day 27 of Halloween my love gave to me:
  Twenty-seven apples🍎🍏
       Three caramel; three candy; three Gala; three Granny Smith; three Makintosh; three Yellow/Golden Delicious; three mini apple pies and a six pack of apple flavored beer (3 of one band and 3 of another)

I enjoy apples.  I enjoy apple anything from fritters to pie; cider to apple flavored beer (only one or two thank you).  Odd I never was an apple pie eater during the fall and Thanksgiving; always pumpkin.  Now I enjoy a piece of apple instead.  Maybe as one gets older their tastes change. Who can say.  
So I was happy to find a gift bag containing the apple surprise.  Only problem is being older I cut my apples into slices; that includes the caramel and candy ones.  Candy apples are okay but not a real favorite.  Like caramel sometimes they have been in the store too long and not so tasty. I guess it’s the thought that counted.  Of course I plan to share the apples with hubby well not the candy or caramel as he does not like them. As for the six bottles of apple flavored brew, maybe one.  I know the mini pies will be a nice dessert.  I have taken them from the packaging, put on a paper plate and into the microwave for about thirty seconds; just to get it warmed. 
Very tasty with a cup of coffee. 
I sure miss buying apples from road side stands.  Living in Pennsylvania we’d stop at the stand if a local orchard for a small container of apples during the fall; plus a jug or two of cider.   
Of course I enjoy apples all year not just the fall.  Give me a Golden Delicious or Granny Smith it does not matter.  Applesauce is a favorite item in my house.  Both my husband and I enjoy having applesauce with a pork meal.  We enjoy chunky the best.  On occasion I enjoy a baked apple but don’t do them often.  I do wish with this apple surprise there’d be one or two apple filled donuts but no such luck. I should be happy with what I received. 
Well until tomorrow.....time for a Granny Smith 🍏.
