Picked up a few apples at the grocery store. I try to keep apples and bananas as often as possible.
Apples are good by themselves. Or with peanut butter. And also with cheese.
I enjoyed a sliced apple earlier this morning. Breakfast I suppose.
Enjoying the sunshine after a frigid morning of 25 degrees.

Oh that is quite nippy there the weather Carol!
I do love apples, but lately find them hard to chew, so I grate them or just have apple sauces. I like Gala apples best.

@CarolDM I am happy to hear that, our winds have subsided as well.
Its been a hard day today, my husband's brother reached out to us to explain the details of the private service for his wife that passed away yesterday. We have both shed so many tears today.

I had an apple with dessert hummus for lunch. It hit the spot. Apples are soo good for you. We should eat one a day.

I love apples too but don't have them everyday. We always have bananas every day

I love apples, too! I went to the grocery this morning, and I got bananas instead.

I like Gala and McIntosh apples. Used to like Rome apples; but I don't think they're available anymore.

I like them a lot, but nowadays I'm deprived of eating them. My lady consumes them every time I put them in the fridge

Apples do contain sugar, but much of the sugar found in apples is fructose.
When fructose is consumed in a whole fruit, it has very little effect on blood sugar levels.
Also, the fiber in apples slows down the digestion and absorption of sugar. This means sugar enters the bloodstream slowly and doesn’t rapidly raise blood sugar levels.

I love apple pies. They are the best if you eat with cherries too.
