Apple Selecting – Reminiscence shared by Joan Thamsen of Middletown, NY

A few years in the past, a pal and I seen that her neighbor had an apple tree in his yard. He was an aged man and he or she actually didn’t know him. The apple tree was proper by the road, with a few of the apples hanging over the curb. Anyway, we noticed all of the ripe apples and couldn’t resist choosing them. Properly, the person got here out, yelling that we had been trespassing and stealing his apples. He then instructed us to by no means do it once more. What did we all know? He wasn’t choosing the apples himself, so we checked out it as serving to him out by not letting the apples simply fall to the bottom and decay. Later that day, I introduced the apples dwelling and instructed my mother what had occurred. To make peace with our neighbor, she baked him an apple pie. She made me take it to him and apologize for stealing his apples. Once I went again to get the empty pie dish, he instructed me I might take as many apples as I wished every time I wished as lengthy, as he received one among Mother’s apple pies in return. He stated it was one of the best pie he’d ever had!
