Sure, the occasional package of berries show up at the market but mostly it's pears, apples, oranges, and frozen fruit right now. Besides, I'm a big fan of apples. I *love* that you didn't peel them. I keep hearing there's something in apple peel that's good for our hearts.

Thanks! Don't hate me but I miss winter. It has been warm here in AZ and so we haven't felt the need to do much baking or making soups.

Firm apples are a nuisance to peel (and I have a modern version of the antique peeler/corer)--soft ones?
