Perhaps I will try adding it at my next apricot jamming session. I had found apricots at my local grocery much earlier in the summer, though. I guess that means they must have traveled from far, far away to get to me. Do you know their general season in the U.S.?

T-minus 90 minutes!

I've read one explanation suggesting that it even relates to the American concept of time - it is very sequential, always leading up to something, like the climax of a movie... or the crowning achievement of dessert at the end of a meal! If you were to compare my husband's culture in these same metaphors, you never want to get stuck watching an African film if you've got somewhere to go - there is part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, and etc, and not much happens in any of them; the story just keeps going, until it ends... and in the same way with a Ghanaian meal, you eat and eat and eat the main course, until you are full and get up from the table! P.S. I am exploring these ideas and more at my blog as well: raisinquestions.wordpress.com Thu, 10 Mar 2011 19:11:43 +0000 http://foodpractice.com/2011/02/22/a-couples-food-compatibility/#IDComment133911411 http://foodpractice.com/2011/03/08/baked-apples-and-ice-cream/#IDComment133755859 Perfect! We didn't have walnuts, but almonds did the job, and I looove the maple suace. Thanks again.

My husband and I are from two different cultures; he is Ghanaian, and I am a midwestern American girl. Our food cultures completely clashed when we first met, and while we have had some growing pains, we have taught each other a lot. For example, he loves eat whole fish (head, tail, and all!), and I hardly ever ate seafood (and if so - filet!). It feels so healthy to get so many omega-3s now! He also was a total stranger to the concept of "dessert," while I was overeating over-sweet things. Now we have a wonderful balance, eating desserts only once in a while, and usually those that are not too sweet - like tonight making your baked apples recipe! I feel like we both eat better now because we have experienced such a diverse range of eating styles.
