Strawberries!!!!
First of the season from the farmers market. They are from SW Michigan. The farmer I purchased them had feared for their safety when they had 25 inches of late-season snow about a month ago.

They are wonderful and available for only such a short time.

1. My dear greatauntoftriplets!
Yummy!

I know you will enjoy them...

We have strawberries at my farmer's market, but I haven't bought any...

I always come home with too many, and then they spoil...:shrug:

:hi:

2. I've had that happen, too, and it's so disappointing....
At the rate that I am eating this batch, they will be gone before they can spoil.

4. We just planted some in the back yard.
It's been a couple of weeks, and no growth yet. Maybe by this time next year, I can brag about our home-grown organic strawberries.

The beans and tomatoes are looking good, however.
