First fruit of the year and it's quit early but that is fine by me. It's like spring/summer time here in Florida almost all year long. _________________ Hope for the best, expect the worst, and take what comes.

That looks like something that would last for about oneandahalf seconds here. Lovely berry. _________________ The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time. -Bertrand Russell

I went out and pick that strawberry today and it was better than the ones I have in the fridge that I bought at the store. I savored that entire bite. Sorry I didn't have enough to share _________________ Hope for the best, expect the worst, and take what comes.
