I remember one message given to me by my parents
It was that an apple a day keeps the doctor away
I try my best to apply this in my life
For breakfast we eat our overnight oats
Enriched with various seeds, nuts and yoghurts
With thinly sliced chopped up apple and banana
There is such a variety of apples available now
I love Bramley, Golden Delicious, Jazz,Pink Ladies
And then we have lovely cooking apples
Those green monsters of the apple world
Which we use to make the lovely apple tarts
I just love every stage of the tart cooking process
From kneading the dough,creating pastry most fine
Rolling it out in circular shape
Then placing it onto a baking tray
And covering it up it up with thin apple slices
Applying plenty of sugar to sweeten the mixture
And covering it all with another sheet of pastry
Then placing it in the 180 degree preheated oven to bake
Enjoying the aroma of baking filling the house
Till out of the oven our delectable tart arrives,
It's quartered and eaten with ice cream
It is always delicious, delightful, delectable to eat.
Then of course we must remember apple crumble
And that German/Austrian favourite apple strudel
A beautiful pastry filled with sweetened apple
When we have some apples left over after above endeavours
We simply boil them in a saucepan and have stewed apple
A very tasty dessert with a scoop of ice cream melting on top
Then there is that refreshing chilled apple juice drink
Or we can simply chomp into a freshly washed apple
Boosting our supply of vitamin C
And assisting our digestive system
Great for our brain and general health
For fun and enjoyment at Halloween
When we have that single apple hanging down from a door frame
With frenzied children vying to get a bite
Yes, that apple a day sure does us a heap of good
Keeping all our bodies in shape and in apple pie order
