First strawberries from the garden. Not at all like those huge tasteless things from the grocery store! Yum!Click on the picture below for a really, really fun close-up of the strawberry. The camera sees more than we can...
oh YUM. We have strawberries in our garden too. I cannot wait till they are ripe. Christopher looks at them everyday and says any red strawberries? We keep telling him they won't be red for a long time.
Nothing better than ripe strawberries right out of the garden. Except for ripe wild blueberries. When I was 12 my family went on a vacation from the coast to Wenatchee in Washington State. We stopped by a wild blueberry patch on Stevens Pass and picked blueberries...and picked and picked and picked. We picked until every container we had was full. We ate blueberries for weeks -- fresh with milk poured on them, in pancakes, muffins, pies and cobblers, frozen over ice cream. Heavenly all of them. But my favorite way to eat them, as it is will strawberries as well, is just in a bowl, with nothing on them. They don't need anything. Just the berries.
this picture with the strawberries in the bowl is like a snapshot of my childhood, mine were pink not red, did not had the necessary patience... anyhow delicious!

Do you know how long it takes a woman with OCD to pick a pint of strawberries from a "Sams" warehouse shelf where there are hundreds???
Freaking forever that's how long, and I hate it.
