Whenever I go apple picking and am surrounded by rows and rows of trees full of gleaming gorgeous apples, feelings of abundance wash over me.
The idea that I get to fill an empty sack full of delectable apples brings me sheer delight and I can’t help but thank my lucky stars.
And when I get my apples home I love to cut them across the center, revealing the star shape… the magic in the middle. It amazes me how something so stunning on the outside can be as beautiful on the inside. It’s also amazing to me that there are certain people in this world who possess this astonishing combination. Immediately Jenny Doh comes to mind. Jenny is someone that I admire both inside and out. She twinkles with charisma, style, heart – all “star” qualities. Jenny’s light radiates from the core, emitting magic in all directions.

Right back at ya, Becky … with all the goodness that you spread. And I’m so glad you love apples. There’s something good about apples. From the tree to the fruit, to the juice, to the sauce, and so much more.
And folks who like apples … well, there’s something good about them, too.
Jenny 🙂

Slicing up an apple this way and seeing the star always brightens up my day. Hope it brings sunshine your way too.

Hi Becky! I love apples! I’ve never been apple picking before. From your magical photos, I can imagine it to be such a wonderful experience. The only picking I’ve done since I was a child is cherry picking. Beautiful post!
Hugs,
Lisa 🙂
