It's that time of year...........

 It's apple time of year.  Here is a list of the varieties of apples commonly found in Canada.

I am a Gala fan, followed by Honeycrisp and Ambrosia.

We had an apple crisp dessert that our daughter-in-laws, mother made and it was lovely.  I used to make those all the time, before I was diagnosed with diabetes.  Apple pies are also a favourite of mine, always used Granny Smith's for those but I don't see them listed here?  Guess they are a British variety.

What's your favourite variety of apple?

Any kind of apples. I can't eat them raw these days due to wonky teeth. I had a small pot of frozen cooked apples in the freezer. Yesterday I made a veggie soup. I chucked the apples in, it tastes fine.

We love honeycrisp and ambrosia but have also discovered a new variety called Rave which, at least for now, has short term availability. It's a crisp juicy apple that puts me in mind of honeycrisp. Can't abide 'soggy' apples (ones that don't have a snap when you bite into them...Macintosh are just plain yeeew).

We used to go Apple picking every year with my dad when I was young. I loved it. We would get to eat apples right from the tree. I think McIntosh are my favorite.
