I'm on round two of the Gratitude Project, which means I'm already halfway through another 52 WEEKS project. This week my focus is on the food I ingest...specifically apples. I have always loved apples but for some reason have barely eaten them the past few years. And since we are near the season of making resolutions, I've been making a conscious decision to eat more apples - you know the old adage, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" and all. We are fortunate to live in a time where we get fresh fruit and vegetables all year round, but to be honest, I can't wait for fall when fresh Okanagan apples are available at the local Farmers' Market....mmmmmmm.

We all should eat apples more often. But you see, there are so many other fruits that we forgot about apples. It's great to have all the fruits all year round, but are those really healthy? I mean, in the summer, I don't eat oranges! Their lake of juice makes them horrible. But during the winter season (like right now), they are delicious!

I know an artist who lived independently and creatively until she was 101 years old and she attributed her longevity and health to an apple and a bowl of oatmeal a day...and homemade rhubarb wine at happy hour :)
