      Please don’t think I’m weird, and your apples are surely lovely, but the first thing I noticed was your hands looking so beautiful and young! My 51 year old hands are lined and creased from hard manual work, dry skin in places, ruddy from years of hot water and wiping and scrubbing and washing, with brutally short nails for hygiene reasons. And I wear gloves at work, but not often at home.

      Ooh looks good! I remember the red toffee apple things as a kid but haven’t seen one in ages.

        Last time I had one of those red things they were using the toffee to cover up a bruised apple. Yucky.

        For a better version try the Chocolate Apple Factory which uses both caramel, chocolate and other yummy additions.

      I bet one of the lessons was to wear shoes with solid tops to prevent harm from splashes of hot sugar … which can burn to the bone.
