The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
I got another bad batch of Green Dragons (mushy and tasteless) from Whole Foods. I'm trying to find a green apple other than Granny Smith, but my options are pretty limited. I won't touch a Golden Delicious.
Nice pic t2b. I haven't had an apple in several months. Last years crop of honey crisps was pretty awful in the northeast. Hopefully they're better this year.
I was kinda disappointed to see that braeburns were the only real choice at Safeway this evening, but damn if these aren't the best braeburns I have ever had.

My 8 year old can eat four or five apples a day. I have to watch him or he'll just finish the lot. He loves Pink Lady's, Royal Gala, Braeburns etc.
As someone who was brought up without junk food except for, say, when my siblings and I went to the cinema for a Disney film, I've got to applaud you for teaching your kids how to eat healthily. It pains me to see the state of some kids running about the place. Its either part-time parenting or unparalleled ignorance. Both annoy me to no end.
Plus I've got guns now and I can't deal with the thought of ice cream or potato chips. Huff that dong, fatties.

I wouldn't say they don't eat any junk, because sometimes take out pizza is a life saver. They don't eat sweets, I don't buy cakes or biscuits, and ice cream and soda is a huge treat. They're all really good at eating fruit, veg, spicy food, sea food etc. It's just easier to feed them that way. Plus, the fruit bowl is the only thing they can help themselves to at anytime. Everything else is mealtimes only.

Take out once a week or fortnight or whatever is something I can still get behind. As long as those kids are active then its not going to do any harm. I like the idea of fruit being the one and only snack option, by the way. Hats off to you.
I should really pitch an extreme reality television show to a US network where I put irresponsible parents through the ringer in regards to the diets they subject their kids to. I'm sure it'd do brilliantly in the ratings.
