Hi Everyone
Happy Monday
♥
♥
These apples are from our tree
and to be honest with you
we all had to get use to these apples looking less beautiful
than the store bought ones
than the store bought ones
since they are not shiny as a car
or without blemishes
they did not look as good to eat
or without blemishes
they did not look as good to eat
But all it took was one bite of the home grown apples
to be forever in
{Love}
with them

with them
They have the most fabulous flavor
juicy, sweet,crunchy and delicious
The home grown tomatoes are so sweet there is no comparison at all
They taste so wonderful we just slice them up
and drizzle a bit of home made vinaigrette on them
or pop them in our mouth as is.....
Don't get me started on the plums, apricots and strawberry's

All of the fruit and vegetables we are growing
taste completely different than store bought
they are all delicious
even the lemons are richer and sweeter
even the lemons are richer and sweeter
No pesticides, no car wax shine, just amazing taste
It is sad that we are all so conditioned to buying and eating
fruit that taste bland but looks perfect on the outside
Freshly picked fruit taste so much better, now the entire family is spoiled
we can all tell immediately if fruit has pesticides on it
not only can we see it
we can taste it

These look wonderful and are so much healthier I'm sure without the pesticides. Love you house and blog. Could you tell me if you made the heart on your front door? Is is chalk?
ReplyDeleteYou are so fortunate to
ReplyDeletebe in a warm sunny climate that
is so perfect for growing so
many wonderful things, Pam!
You are right, there is nothing
better than homegrown. Such a difference!
We have mulberries and strawberries in our
yard, but nothing else. Too many deer
around to grow vegetables without building
a serious cage system around them!
Enjoy your week!

Yep -- nothing like homegrown. I so miss my grandparents orchard ----- those "Transparent" apples made the best applesauce. I still like my applesauce warm.
ReplyDeleteI love homegrown anything. We have a growing orchard but not ready to eat. Can't wait for our apples, pears, peaches, plums to be producing.
ReplyDeleteWe do have a big apple orchard down the road from where we live and I have started getting apples from him every fall. You are right that they are not shiny and perfectly pretty, but oh my, they are delicious.
Just beautiful... We DO have blackberries here, in the Pacific Northwest, and do all we can to get rid of the darn things. They just pop up everywhere and go to town. We are growing huckleberries, however, and trying to keep the birdies at bay so we can have some for ourveryownselves. :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
Blessings,
Spencer
