A Taste of Home

Grocery store visit last night to get some water, milk (unrefrigerated, from the shelf... that's a whole different story), crackers, and cookies. As I'm walking around, I notice this apple.

Delish looking right? Any guesses of where it was grown?

I'm oddly proud of the fact that Washington produces the best apples in the world, and also very sad to think about the craziness that is a Washington apple in a country that has an economy based so much on agriculture. But either way... WASHINGTON!!! I definitely smelled the apple, hoping to get a wiff of the Cascades, salmon, and Safeco Field. Alas, no luck. Still, nice to see a bit of home so far away.
