I haven't heard of that kind of pears around here lately.
Gala apples, mr bliss's favorite kind and even though we have 2 apple trees (different kinds) and many kinds available in the stores, Gala is his favorite for many years.
The harvest of apples and pears is late aug, sept-oct, so the fresh ones will be coming to stores soon. Apple farms often have 'pick your own' around here.

I bought a bag of Jazz this morning at Trader Joe.
Spadona pears are delicious, I bought some the other day, we used to have a spadona pear tree, they're really popular down here in Southern Italy.

Hot apple pie a la mode.
Don't know when, I've been a bit busy lately, I would like to make the pastry myself too, I sometimes cheat and buy it from the fridge counter.

I like goudreinet, but I've never seen them outside the Netherlands.
Not fond of Golden Delicious, but I like Elstar, Gala, Granny Smith and Cox

Gala apples here is one of the cheaper and less tasty variety. Minnesota is famous for developing new variety of apples. Here is the link to U of M site that shows apple that have been developed here:

I like honeycrisp, sweet tango, zestar, but Honeygold is my favorite. The only apple I eat with the skin, otherwise I always peel my apples.
