It's apple-pickin' time. Well, not here in NJ, but in Teapot Tuesday Land it is.
Poor Annie Mae Appleseed, super apple picker extraordinaire, keeps getting dumped on her uh huh by, as Cindy (Mothermark) puts it, a bad apple.
I think the bad apple is just looking for a little love in all the wrong places. He'd be better off taking the advice of the Pink Lady Apple rep and offer some Pink Lady apples to Annie Mae for Valentine's Day. (Pink Lady's are one of my faves!) She's bound to love the idea that he's looking out for her health, instead of dumping her on her uh huh!
Just look what a little love will do...............

I'm wondering if the Pink Lady Rep. is gonna take a cut of the $7.5MM as a finders fee when he convinces the Bad Apple that she *found* him a rich ole lady! Snort! Although, Annie Mae's family may insist on a pre-nup!
I love that the apples are heart shaped, its heart warming reallly! That image is to die for...such a cute little tree and your fun red and white polka dotted ribbon with the stitching on the sides is awesome.....so happy and fun!
Sorry I went to bed in the middle of the teaparty girlfriend! Your card rocks and how smart you are that you are working on Valentines Day!

Well, aren't we in adverstisement these days...me too. Did you see my post. LOL Interesting and healthy! Cool.
Lorraine, I just love the different ribbons you used, what a clever idea. The tree is perfect and of course the blue sky. Well done on helping Annie stay healthy.
If you can, come over and have a little appletinis, you'll love it. My apples are green though, but with vodka, they are tasty! Promise!
