Apple ? No, thanks. /#freewrites
Jan 7th freewrites. Prompt: Apple.
My Entry
The rate at which I took apple decreases over the years. Why? Bad Economy.
It's getting more expensive.
It's not grown here either. The weather doesn't support it production.
The last time I purchased some, they were so small I wonder where they got imported from. So, I had to negotiate for the bigger ones. I really love the red ones. The prices were so ridiculous I wonder what happened to those years we bought them for cheaper prices.
(moves to the orange sellers)
These ones are planted here. These ones are cheap.
Give me the bowl of oranges, I said
"Ma'am , don't you want the apples?"
No. The oranges would do
Went back home proud. I saved some cash off groceries.

Hope the oranges were just as good :)
I have come with the next prompt and if you already have done the prompt, then next thing to do is to head on over to Free Write House :)
I am assuming that this is a true story. I wonder what the temperatures are in your area? There are trials now to grow apples very successfully in warm climates - but the temperature must stay above 75degree Fahrenheit...
