Granny Smith
Sometimes you have to wait a long time for a thing.
In my case, I have waited about 15 years to make a pie.
I think it was 1995 when I ordered a "Granny Smith Apple Tree" from a catalog, and received in the mail something that looked like this twig. I threw it away. Later, I realized that the twig was the tree I ordered, fetched it out of the trash, and planted it.
During the years, it grew up and produced apples, which the local rats and birds and whatever ate as soon as they were ripe, and I got none. Somehow, this year, I got some apples before the wildlife did, and I'm gonna make a pie. It's a miracle, Granny Smith.
