Strawberry Pickin’
The boys had a half-day Friday, so as soon as the bell rang, I whisked them away for an hour in the strawberry patch. It was a beautiful day, and rows and rows of deep red, juicy strawberries were just waiting for us. We overdid…overpicked, but the eating is good! PFB wanted to buy a little strawberry plant of his own, and it’s currently sitting by the window in his room. He has a sleepover tonight and wanted to make sure that, in his absence, I would take care of the watering. I told him I had it covered.
I love that tree!
We picked 2 1/2 buckets!

I love strawberries but have never actually picked them.
I bet I'd eat them all before I paid for 'em.

Strawberries already? Oh dear, we're MONTHS from that point.

Oh, yum!
Can't wait until berries are ripe here.

Thanks, Sarakastic.
That would be a problem, David. Unless you were pre-weighed yourself.
They'll all be gone in three weeks, Green Girl & Stacy. And then I'll be waiting for the peaches.
