Day 100 - 100th Apple a Day Blog Celebration

Happy 100th apple blog!  The stars are all here celebrating with an open apple bar.  Shown above, all the apples I have reviewed so far.  There are 65 different varieties.  The other 34 reviews were of other apple products like spirits, recipes, baked goods ect... I actually reviewed more than 34 other items because some were combo reviews or comparisons for example: cider vs. juice, apple sauce vs. baby food, different apple whiskeys, brandies, apple oatmeals.  I also threw in some beer reviews because I sometimes (often) drink beer while writing my apple blogs.  It's my blog, I can do what I want!

I started the blog Feb 19th 2017 and the idea at first was to do one every day so the review was of something I just ate that day.  I went from that first day until April 6th 2017 only skipping a day 5 times, 3 of which I punished myself for as discussed in my Day 22, 32 and 33 reviews.  I took the summer of 2017 off and then started doing the review just when it felt right.  It got tough to have the discipline to write every day and also have fresh product on hand.  Also, new apples usually show up in stores in the fall.

I discovered that a lot of good apples come from New Zealand like Jazz, Envy and Koru.  I reviewed the Grapple on Day 23, which is a Fuji which has soaked in concord grape juice, not good!  Day 41 brought the Pear Apple, which is not really an apple at all but an Asian pear.  It is however, delicious!

It has been quite a journey filled with laughter, tears, stories, sober nights, drunken days, conflict,  boredom, exaltation, devastation and resolution.  I am including links to all the entries so far.  Check 'em out.  It could change your life or at least give you something to do for a few minutes.

Thanks to anyone who has read the blog.  I have decided I don't have a favorite apple.  There are a lot of good ones.  I do have a least favorite though, the Red Delicious sucks!

Next time, there's a twist, the WildTwist.  Crunch on!
