Apple magic

Apples have long held mystical significance; if an apple day outing isn’t enough excitement for you, test out one of these theories:

If you fall asleep in an apple orchard you won’t wake up for years (and not just if you sampled all the ciders).

Treasure buried beneath an apple tree will never rot.

If you can’t decide between several potential suitors, press apple pips onto your forehead and name each after a potential love interest. The last to fall from your head is the chap to hitch your wagon to.

For a vision of your future love, eat an apple by candlelight in front of a mirror. Your lover’s face will appear over your shoulder. Miraculous and terrifying.

If you can eat a crab apple without frowning, you’ll win the heart of whomever you desire.
