green tea, red apples and a lavender scented life

thinking
i am most definitely deathly allergic to green tea. which is a shame because i just bought 200 softgels of green tea extract :| they make me so sick and shaky and carsick even when i am not even near the car :|

wondering
how come they don't sell Zoflora here?????! one tiny bottle makes about 10 big bottles of the most awesome smelling antibacterial lavender disinfectant that can kill the stinkiest litter box stinks and makes icky-left-in-the-washer-ovenight laundry smell heavenly again and it makes floors shiny and fragrant for days. honestly, i should just import an entire container of it and make an infomercial and sell it for $19.99 for two bottles, plus undisclosed ridiculously high shipping and handling costs ;)

loving
the wonderful apple orchard we stumbled upon yesterday in deepest loveliest Julian, California (thanks to yelp, we would NEVER have found such a hidden gem - Raven Hill really is the best) it had 45 rows of the rosiest, juiciest red apple trees, scratch-my-tummy farm dogs and a slightly eccentric/lovely Irish owner named Paddy, who had a feather in his bowler hat and very very Irish blue eyes (honestly, does it get any better than that?!)

NOT butchering
said apples to pieces to make into pies, but enjoying them "baked by the sun" as Paddy said :)

loving
my hubbie for driving 4 nauseating windy-road hours to indulge my apple-loving heart xoxoxo

yesterday was this kind of day (the kind you remember for a loooong time and dream about on an urghh-it's-monday morning such as today)


even the golden delicious were indeed delicious (usually i won't eat 'delicious' apples because they are too full of themselves - i will decide if they are delicious or not;)

  1. you know what I love about you? that you encourage your boys to wear clothes that match so the pictures will be nice while picking apples. :)
