And That's That

My last apple along with some The Walking Dead marathon.


You look hungry, zombie, but it's mine. All mine!

Not a bad way to finish off the Challenge and the year.

Pricing Out Apples

The apple challenge has certainly made me more conscious about the price and availability of apples. I am a localvore, that is I really try to ONLY eat food that is grown or produced locally and none of that processed stuff that fills the grocery store shelves (ahem, artificial grape flavor added to apples, WJR). Anyway, it can prove to be challenging, especially when trying to find a great deal for delicious apples.

Fret not, Clevelanders, for I have the answer; Nature's Bin offers locally grown Ohio apples for $0.79 a lb! That is certainly the cheapest I have seen it and it is consistently at this price.

Eat on, fellow applers.

Let's roll

All I'm saying is a Sharp Cheddar and Apple Grilled Cheese sandwich will definitely break up just pounding whole apples day in and day out. With all that cheese I will enjoy also working towards 365 miles in 365 days, i.e. the great challenge of 2010.

1 apple, 0 miles down. The health benefits of the apples and miles should play well with each other.

It's Go Time

Welcome to 2011.

Challenge on! Begin your eating.

Apple Challenge 2011

Every blog has to start with something.  I guess this is it ...

Coming soon (really soon): Apple Challenge 2011 !!

Begins January 1, 2011

It's the same game plan of the infamous Bacon Challenge of 2008 and the Mile Challenge of 2010 -- eat an apple a day for the 365 days of 2011.  Here's where we will document our highs and lows, our recipes, our apple news, our general progress, our likes and/or dislikes of particular apple varieties, medical discoveries, etc.

Stand by stomach, here comes some apple-y goodness.
