Strawberry Debutantes.



It is finally time to reveal John's prize strawberry patch to the world. When I told him I was going to take a picture of them he went out to water. Right before I took this picture he said, "They will look prettier in the evening light." He is primping them like they are getting ready for their cotillion. His little strawberry debutantes. This strawberry garden produces enough fruit for me to make batch after batch of jam. Originally I wanted the area to be my perfect flower patch. John wanted strawberries. It was a race to see who could plant the fastest. He won.

I see some dandelions standing off to the side like unwanted suitors. They'll be asked to leave.
