Strawberries!

So glad I decided to let the garden have its own way viz wild strawberries for ground cover. They really would cover everything if I let them, if I didn't keep them constantly in check. Not these babies though, we ate them for dinner and very good they were, too :o)

And then the heavens opened, and then my camera batteries died. :o)

Ours are usually tiny and quite pippy but this year they're HUGE, about 1/3 the size of a normal strawberry, juicy and incredibly sweet. The main trouble with them is, they're so at home they take everything over unless I go at them periodically with the shears of doom. :o)
