Comments on: here we go! http://patriciazaballos.com/2008/08/16/here-we-go/ where a mother tries to cultivate creativity and a sense of wonder in her kids—and does a whole lot of wondering herself in the process Tue, 15 May 2012 04:42:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Patricia http://patriciazaballos.com/2008/08/16/here-we-go/comment-page-1/#comment-13 Patricia Mon, 18 Aug 2008 03:34:45 +0000 http://patriciazaballos.com/?p=174#comment-13 Oh, do plant one! They really are special, and the blossoms are so gorgeous. Alice Waters has a recipe for them in Chez Panisse Fruits: the Pink Pearl Apple Galette. She writes, "People gasp when they see this tart because the pink blush of the apples is so unexpected and beguiling." Well yes...and no. It<em> is </em>really beautiful when you make it, but part of me can't help but think that it looks a little like it's made with ham. A ham galette. Hmmm... Oh, do plant one!

I'll have to add one to our growing back yard orchard as the children eventually outgrow the lawn area. Or maybe I'll espalier them against the garden wall and let them be vegetable backdrops. He looks pretty happy eating a sour, unripe apple. My Thing 1 got our only Fuji from the espaliered three out front this year, before I would have considered it edible. What a great idea!
