New to me at the produce market were Lady Apples. Tiny little apples, about 2 inches and smaller. I read online they are a very old heirloom. I saw some interesting recipes, i.e. bacon wrapped lady apples, adorable little carmel apples. I thought of you all on this forum, and wondered if you have memories, recipes, thoughts about this little apple.
I wish I bought some. I will be going back tomorrow to buy some. (Any excuse to visit that market. Produce is usually half the price of chain grocery stores.) My niece turns 7 on Thursday. So I will bring some of these cuties for her birthday party.

That is a great idea Ann. Thank you. I will share photos, if all goes as I hope.
My neice is named Gabriela and she is interested in gardening. Maybe with my encouragement, she will be Gabby AppleSeed.

Sue, when you eat them be sure to save the seeds. You can start your own trees! What a neat idea for your niece, too.
I never heard of them either - what a wonderful find!
