Simple Pleasures
Strawberry season has arrived here in Middle Tennessee. Handpick your own, or buy by the basketful. When I was a young girl, I was allergic to fresh strawberries. Thank goodness, I outgrew that sensitivity.
"As the years pass, I am coming more and more to understand that it is the common, everyday blessings of our common everyday lives for which we should be particularly grateful."
Those strawberries look delicious, Jo. I will have to pick up a supply at the Farmer's market and get some baking going. Just love the quotation... so true.
It is cold and rainy here and I saw your beautiful bowl of strawberries. I am going to put some in a bowl and snack on them. Thank you and thanks for all the pretty photos you have shared.

They should be ripe here, too. I am going to have to check out our supply. Thanks for reminding me.
Please put the kettle on, Jo. I could use a cuppa and some strawberries and cream..
Those strawberries do look delicious ... enjoy the season.
All the best Jan
You are so fortunate to be able to grow your own strawberries. Those are beautiful!

It is a beautiful sight. We grew strawberries when I was a kid on the farm. I don't eat many of them anymore.
I had some Spanish ones last week, but the English ones in season are unbeatable. Can't wait.
