Berry, berry good

 Wild strawberries are the best. They look nothing at all like the beefed up, steroidal creations we get in the supermarket. And they taste nothing like them either.

So sweet they melt on the tongue!  It is a perfect reward for getting down into the grass to hunt for them.

Judi and her granddaughters Mia and Hannah had a great time hunting the elusive berries in the back field.

Very few actually made it home with them -- mostly they vanished into eager and grateful mouths.









They weren't the only hunter gatherers up there that day. They were joined by at least four deer, all happily snuffling in the grass of the field for their own tasty treats.
