INSTRUCTIONS: Accelerate or decelerate an aging process.

Cryogenic stasis. Why? FOR SCIENCE! My life would be so much easier if there were a way to indefinitely store fruit. So I tried.
Notes
The specimen had broken down slightly, due to ice crystals breaking through the cell walls. It still would work excellently for baking and the like.
Also, the skin became slightly leathery and wrinkled, very similar to ice mummies. Interesting...

- smaller

I love your gloves. And your hair. Why not tell the amount of time the apple was frozen for?

Compliments make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

That's a good question. It's mainly because I forgot.

If I had to hazard a guess, it'd be about three weeks to a month.

Science in progress! Do not disturb!
