We went Apple Picking near Princeton,NJ over the weekend. A bit late as most of the yummy apples were already finished but even then, a day at the orchards and farm stand was fun. You pick and taste and eat and pay for what you take home.
Baby Empire Apples.. They taste like gooseberries and even have seeds in them. I wouldn't have guessed them if I ahdn't seen and tasted it.But it was interesting to see the range of guessing.Thanks to all who played.
This is what the babies want to grow up to be. Wine Sap Apples
Empire Apples.A little sweet and a little tart.I learn about the different kinds every year and then forget it slowly.
Golden Delicious..but small ones as the season is almost over.
Granny Smith Apples.
A bagful of colors.
Apples being dipped in caramel and then M n Ms or nuts.
Candy apples laid out to dry, before being packed.
We like it raw, ripe and tart
we like it baked or cooked
Just one of the colors now in the cart
Though its much bigger when its picked.

Cheers,Trupti
NO CLUE , NO WAY, JOSE`!!!!
Are those Rose hips?
Pomegranates, i guess
I first thought of it as rose hips, then after reading through and through your cute little poem, and plainly staring at the photo for the past couple of minutes, now i get a feeling that these are cherries photographed while they are too young. I can be quite incredibly wrong. But for today i scream...
CHERRIES !!!!!!!!
I have no idea! After seeing maneka's answer "elderberries", I googled for it and thought it was right. Looks beautiful though.
Ash Berries????
cranberries? elderberries?
NO NO NO!! Ignore my first answer!They are plums!!
ummm...ignore all my previous answers...are these ash berries?(thanks priya balakrishna for giving the tip) ;)
I don't blame u guys at all. If I hadn't seen it, I would have guessed similarly. Yes, it does LOOK like ash berries(wow)and baby plums and elderberries, but hmm, no its not a berry. thats the biggest clue.Tune in tomo morning for the answer. Why don't u all sleep on it.
My husband says its coffee..And I second it..:))
