The First Strawberries of the Season
This was my prepared 6WS was with shots from the beginning of the week. I can’t hold it for another week as the novelty will have gone by then judging from the greenish fruits waiting in the wings to ripen. So this is my second Six Word Saturday.
Strawberry fields forever
When cycling through the fields, mostly strawberry and asparagus, I was bowled over this May with the scent of strawberries in the air. You would come around a corner and it hit you: STRAWBERRIES. Definitely more than a whiff. But it lingered and I could keep smelling a faint strawberry scent for hours afterwards. And now, with summer gone I just need the slightest whiff of a single strawberry and I am back in the fields thinking of the quote “Doubtless God could have made a better berry, but doubtless God never did” (by Dr William Boteler, quoted via Roger Williams – or possibly somebody else).

Cavaillon melons
For the life of me I will never understand that we can buy cantaloupe melons, Galia melons, Charentais melons and so on in the local supermarkets but Cavaillon melons are nowhere to be had. Cavaillon is twinned with our town, it shouldn’t be a problem. Also, a mere 100km away from us, just over the border in France, they are sold when in season, it shouldn’t be a problem. And they are simply the best melons ever!
In late spring there are untold roadside stands selling strawberry and asparagus in our area. The places may not be the most inviting – chosen for convenient access and parking rather than beautiful surroundings – but the goods usually are.
I prefer this advert placement for a day of fruit and vegetables (from another year, I think this year’s will be cancelled).
