Why I am Thankful for Apples

1. Pie – I love all kinds of pie (a lot), but there is nothing like a warm slice of sweet apple crumb pie made with tart Granny Smith apples and a scoop of smooth vanilla ice cream for dessert.

2. Sauce, butter, bread, juice, cider – you name it, you can make it with an apple.

3. Pie – did I already mention this?

4. An apple a day…

5. Variety – big, little, sweet, tart, crisp, soft, red, yellow or green. Did you know there are over 7,000 types of apples?

Ideas are like apples. There are a million varieties, and you can make anything you can imagine with them. But just like apples, if you sit them on a shelf for too long, they will rot, and some ideas will grow old and die. Fortunately, unlike apples, most ideas can be brought back to life if given the opportunity.

Apples are meant to be eaten. Ideas are meant to be shared. What will you share with the world this coming year?
