We picked our first strawberries from our backyard plants this week. This is insanely early for strawberries, in my opinion, but who's complaining.

We're waiting on the organic u-pick farm berries to ripen before we go strawberry pickin' in earnest. For now we'll snack on berries from the backyard.

Brienne and I wrote this haiku together yesterday at lunch while eyeing the bowl of berries for dessert.

juicy strawberries
sweet and yummy in a bowl
pop one in your mouth

PS. I'm fooling around these days with the contrast curve and deeper shadows presets in Bibble, my photo software. You may notice that in some of my photos (like that photo of Brienne), though mostly it's very subtle. Heavily editing photos is not something I'm really keen on doing but I'm having fun with the creativity of it right now.

Love the haiku and the berries look really good. I'm trying to play around more with my camera, I don't have any specific software to use. I've been using photobucket to do some editing.

Strawberries in June?! Lucky

Strawberries in June?! Lucky you! We don't get them here until around Canada Day, although I guess they'll be early here too this year. We are eagerly watching our wild strawberries blossom in our lawn, waiting to pick the first delicious, small red berries. Hoping to find an organic farm here this year; can't wait to make jam!

LOVE the haiku!

Congrats on the strawberries! I got some from the farmer's market this past weekend and they made a delicious breakfast! Great haiku and loved the photo-editing talk as well!
