One of the American Classics - Apple Pie...or anything with apples for that matter!! The apple is good any day any time. Bobbing apples at Halloween. Candied apples at the carnival. Apple pancakes or apple dumplings for breakfast. Slices of apple with cheddar cheese at snack time. Apple cobbler for dessert after dinner on a fall evening. Oh, my! The list could go on and on and on. Ready for an apple or apple something?

Awakenings: How the Apple Orchards Spread

Awakenings: How the Apple Orchards Spread | Human Interest | Scoop.it
There are songs about apples (mostly for kids :-)), a company named Apple, poems about apples, stories about apples but the best is the deliciousness of the fruit. Some varieties of red apples include Gala, McIntosh, Red Delicious, Fuji and Honeycrisp. Golden Delicious and Ginger Gold are yellow, Crispin is a green-yellow, and Granny Smith is a green apple. Braeburn, Cortland, Empire, Jonathan and Rome are some of the most-produced U.S. apples. WHEW! That's a lot of apples!

Johnny Appleseed Day

Skuuppilehdet's insight:
The apple, ah-h-h-h! From the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden to Johnny Appleseed and onward through time, the apple identifies with religion, mythology and folktales, along with its absolute deliciousness. It is the legend of Johnny Appleseed that is the focus of this day.

"September 17 is... 
National Apple Dumpling Day

Apple dumplings are a popular dessert in the USA. They contain apples, raisins, sugar, cinnamon or whatever fits the cook's taste. The filling is covered with dough and then baked. They are served while still warm and fantastic with ice cream. They look like crunchy pouches and taste like a small cake. There are many variances in recipes alternating the kind of apples or including additional ingredients."
