I am so terrible at peeling apples. It's impressive, I think, that I've lived twenty-five years, loving fucking apples to death and can't peel one properly.
I practiced peeling one yesterday. I started out with a knife and then switched to a vegetable peeler because I tried to peel an apple with a sharp knife like a year ago and cut myself and apparently never got over it. It wasn't even a bad cut just like a little slice in my finger. But physical pain and I are on violent terms with each other so I took it as a sign that I should live the rest of my life without peeling them.
BUT THE VEGETABLE PEELER. It was pretty messy and I was hacking at the damned fruit most of the time but it mostly worked. Enough for the apple crisp I was making. :)
WHICH I WOULD TAKE A PICTURE OF EXCEPT MY BELOVED CAMERA IS ON THE FRITZ. It was doing terrible two weeks ago and now it seems to be alright BUT IT'S DYING I JUST KNOW IT. AND NOW IT'S UNRELIABLE. AND I LOVE IT. SO MUCH. I'VE HAD IT FOR LIKE SIX YEARS AND I USE IT ALMOST EVERY DAY AND I JUST I JUST. ;;
