Apples

Virginia has always liked apples.  Not every time I offer them but she eats them occassionally.  So the other day at the store I grabbed a few apples.  I had some recipes I wanted to try so I got a few Honey Crisps (these were probably the last of their season they are so so sweet and juicy good!) and some granny smith.
Well yesterday morning I was going to attempt to bake apple chips so I sliced up one of the Honey Crisps and gave virginia a few and baked a few slices.  She ate them and asked for more.  She followed me to the kitchen and told me not to peel and slice it she wanted "that red apple."  She was so adamant that I just handed it to her.  She promptly took a huge bite out of it.  This may not seem like a big deal and it isn't really BUT I've always peeled and sliced her apples.  She happily bit and munched away at this apple with apple juice running down her arms.  She likes to methodically go around the apple taking bites where there is still the peeling on.  Once she's bit all the peeling off she's done.  It is a waste of some delicious apple BUT I'm not going to stop her if she wants the whole apple and she's eating it.  She asked for another one last night after her bath so I gave her another one.  I'm sure she'll hate them next week after I go and buy a bag full of them!
