English apples are here!


Kent Discovery, no less!

Much as I love the summer soft fruits and am currently enjoying greengage heaven, there is nothing quite like the arrival of the first English apples of the season to raise my spirits.

Of course I bought these off a market stall - the supermarkets are still shipping their apples in from New Zealand, South Africa et all.

I appreciate your love of local apples. Here in Connecticut we have some huge apple orchards, and I love the MacIntoshes when they come out - gotta wait till Sept and Oct though!
