Finally, the Apple Lady’s identity revealed

This is the Apple Lady. She is famous. She has the best, most inexpensive apples around. Her name is Yumiko and she runs this shop, together with her brother and her old-old mom (who usually just sits in the corner sipping her ramen).

I also took this picture to show you what a typical produce/food privately owned shop looks like in Japan. It feels good to buy local fruits and vegetables.

Haven’t figured out how to cook the roots that are sold right now all over Misawa—you can see them in the lower left corner.
We are enjoying our apples while they last this season.
