Oh I have tried that. It actually usually works quite well when it is just
Angela and me here. She is usually fine with just the sliced apples. I
don't know why people feel the need to eat fruit in the summer. The last
thing I want to eat when it is hot out is something sticky or sweet.

I'm having a taco salad tonight. No shell on it. Just in a bowl. They're
having steak with garlic marinade, brown and wild rice mix and tossed
salads.
