I'm glad, too. It's more upbeat and something I have always loved, doesn't drag you down like constant disturbing news which can drag you down.

I meant to comment on the person who grows Fuji apples. They are one kind among many recommended for pies. My very favorite are and have always been Jonathan.

Anyway I bought some beautiful Fujis at the store, then didn't feel with messing with a 2 crust pie. My daughter left most of a box of red hots on the dr table for days so I make some cinnamon apples. I love them, never had them before, have bought more red hots and made some more. They cook down and I eat them pretty fast. But I noticed the Fujis don't get mushy after maybe 30 min cooking. The recipe said to cook uncovered which I do and stir occasionally.

I had a choice between some Braeburn and MI Jonagold. I chose the Jonagold and will do a pie with those.

Now I have this thing I want to make a key lime pie. They actually have bags of them at the store (we have a pretty good store overall). I will wait for my birthday and have it all planned out how I want to do it. Squeeze out the juice in a deodorized garlic press lol.

Have to zest quite a bit first. Then save some seeds and see if I can grow a few trees, might be happy in my sunroom in the winter.
