To me, more than pumpkin spice, autumn means apples.
1. Have you ever bobbed for Apples?
Only once or twice. It was a regular feature of books I read growing up so I expected to do it a lot more than I actually have. It's difficult to do! The shape of apples and the texture of their skin make it difficult to grab them with your teeth. Bobbing for plums would be easier but probably messier.
My favorite time bobbing for apples was when I was 20, and a guy I had a major crush on bobbed for apples in his white pirate shirt, which quickly became a clear, clingy pirate shirt. Yum, and I don't mean the apples.
2. Do you like a regular or hard apple cider?
I like both. My biggest issue with cider is when it is too natural and has ... well, in orange juice you'd call it pulp, not sure what it's called in cider. A nice strained cider is best.
3. Do you have a special type of apple that you prefer over others?
Not Red Delicious is my favorite kind.
4. Have you ever made baked apples?
Not myself, but I really enjoy eating them with others make them. I also enjoy caramel apples; such a delicious taste together.
5. Who is the apple of your eye?
The two apples of my eye (one for each eye?) are my two kids. The younger turns fourteen today; the older is getting ready to apply to college/university.
