Apple Juice

So I've always really enjoyed apples. In any form, any texture, I love apples. Apple sauce, apple juice, apples and peanut butter, apple fritters, apple pie. I just like the appleness. I always order an apple juice when I'm in a juicy mood. But now, every time I drink apple juice I think of one specific moment in Santa Rosa, California in July of last year. Eric and I had driven hundreds of miles that day, we were both knackered, and I had actually fallen asleep and gotten a couple of hours before we were on to setting up for the next fire.

He woke me up, after he had driven miles and miles, sweetly, with a cinnamon and sugar bagel, and an ice cold apple juice.

He is a kind hearted man.

Now, when I miss him, it's what I want.
