(at the workbench) - mrs strawberry arrives ...

you can tell when the lilacs are out, it's not long until mrs strawberry's much anticipated arrival ...




 all the stories told about our life as giants can be revisited again where we find wild strawberries hidden in plain sight at our feet ...

spring is moving into full bloom, we are not too far from those long summer days and beautiful sun-warmed strawberries...




 hope you have a wonderful long memorial day weekend!

ps. mrs strawberry now joins mrs acorn, mrs hazelnut, and forest mama...  who should be next? let me know who you think!

    Everything you create (and write) has such warmth...there is love shining through.

    Thank you and have a lovely weekend,

    Oh! My stomach growled loudly when I saw those berries. We have two tiny patches that we happened upon in our early years on this farm and we start checking in June. Beautiful! Love your strawberry woman, too! Stopping by from Frontier Dreams!

    Hopping over from Frontier Dreams. I love your Mrs. Strawberry! You are so very lucky to have ripe strawberries already. We have a few weeks to wait yet.

    What a lovely idea, I love strawberries but we have dug all ours up now as we don't get enough sun for the berries to ripen.

      this year the strawberries are still in same pots since a move last autumn, I'm still waiting to see if they'll manage for a while this way until they find a better home.
