Hey little apple blossom 幸福红的苹果

mercoledì 20 giugno 2012
"An apple starts growing on its tree in the spring. By early summer, it may be full size and as red as it will ever be. To the naked eye, it appears ready to eat. But it's not. If you pluck it and bite into it, the taste probably won't appeal to you. If you pluck it and hope it will be more delicious in a few weeks, you'll be disappointed. So here's the moral of the story, Gemini: For an apple to achieve its potential, it has to stay on the tree until nature has finished ripening it. Keep that lesson in mind as you deal with the urge to harvest something before it has reached its prime."

An example of red apple Lucky-Charm of China. The caracter 福 fu means 'Good Fortune', it's made with a sticker (i think a black one) that realize this strange tan to the apples.
I have to be attached to my tree a little more, and remove my sticker at the right moment.
A friend of mine, an asian woman, said that eating apple is synonimous of being sick, so if you are an apple addicted there will be some misunderstandings. 
The only APPLE very appreciate by Chinese people is not a Fruit at all ;)
