As much as I hate to admit it, I learned about Honeycrisp apples from Oprah Winfrey.  It was on one of her lists of her favorite things, and I stumbled across it on the web some time ago.  I thought, “I like apples, what the heck… let’s try these honeycrisps,” and that was it.  I was ruined for other apples.  Now, I look forward to September/October the way a kid looks forward to Christmas.

The season is almost over, though the local grocery stores will continue importing them from some place south of here for a little while longer.  Thought I would capture one so I could daydream until next year.
