A much better idea for your cooking apples SS81 is to wrap them securely and post them to me immediately. Home made apple pie is one of the things that ought to be available on prescription from your GP when you are feeling low lol! x

Yes you can but only a little at a time. Or as above, send some to me as I have lots of blackberries and can make blackberry and apple crumble - yum yum yum
