Fruit goodness

This is the best year for my fruit trees ever. Strange thing is I neglected them this Spring, no pruning, no fertilizing, I never spray, but the trees are full.
The pic below is of Lodi cooking apples, but I ate one and it was a great eating apple too. I'm going to make a Dutch Crumb Apple Pie from these for a potluck this evening:

Man those look good. Our fruit bushes are over loaded too! What a great year. Our raspberries are falling off because we can't eat them fast enough, and the cherry boughs are drooping due to the weight.
I love apple pie. Those lucky lucky potters!

Interesting and curious why this year is so good. I really did neglect everything. I'm glad you are having a good year too.

Apple pie...... one of my lifetime goals is to be able to make apple pie like my Gramma did. I watched her intently but she did nothing unusual with them but the taste of heaven when it came out of the oven.

ahem. If I'm bringing arugula, you're bringing apples for cobbler!

I'm friending you after reading about you in [livejournal.com profile] loupnoir's post regarding pottery.
