Brain Teaser

If you know the answer right away, congratulations, you may laugh at me.  If you don't know the answer, that's OKAY too.

In a room there are ten people, and there is a basket with ten apples. How do you distribute the ten apples so in the end everyone gets an apple and there is still an apple left in the basket?

NOTE: Alex asked me this and I think I gave him a good answer right away. I felt pretty smug about it.  Feel free to leave your answer in the comment section in white so nobody can read your wrong answer.  I don't know the "correct" answer yet.

NOTE 2:  I guess the true brain teaser is how to change the comment text to white ... I guess it can't be done given the status of my template and Blogger.  Sorry guys.
