Strawberries, rowing

[rebeccmeister]

There were locally-grown strawberries for sale at the co-op on Tuesday.







It now feels like summer, for real.

It makes me so happy that I can buy locally-grown strawberries at the co-op. The price was pretty good, too.

I think I am going to make some strawberry-rhubarb mini-pies soon. When I have some free time. Ha.

I had one blister rip open while rowing this morning.



That's not too bad, all things considered. I just hope I don't make it any worse tomorrow.

The cat decided to wake me up at 12:30 am to share some opinions, and then I had the insomnomnomnia at 2:30 am. I suppose that at least if I start breaking down and crying later in the day, the cat will be my only witness?

Yum!

And hugs

Awww, thank you for the hugs. Much needed today. Hugs to you as well!

Oh, I like that "insomnomnomnia"! 😀

We are swimming in strawberries here in the quaint and scenic Hudson Valley! In fact, I may go strawberry picking at one of those "we grow 'em; you pick 'em" places next week, just so I can take photographs of the plants. Bake a couple of pies and give the rest to the foodbank.

Yum!

I think there's one place down there that has u-pick sour cherries. That's what I really WANT because for some reason I can't seem to find giant bags of frozen sour cherries in grocery stores around here (easy to find in Washington, harumph).

We, too, have a ton of the u-pick strawberry places out here. I might just go.

Cat food in freezer in the morning, feed cat just before bed?

They drive me crazy too, sorry

[rebeccmeister]

Cat food in the freezer is a good idea! Thank you!

I have to add 8 ice cubes to the top anyway so that they don’t gorge their food and firehose it all over when they throw up. Ugh.

yay strawberries! I have some growing in my garden, a few have started to ripen but the slugs got them first.

I don't often comment but I really like reading your blog, you are always up to interesting things :-)

[rebeccmeister]

Those cursed slugs! I hope that eventually you figure out methods to divert them away from yummy things growing in your garden.

And, thank you! It's okay to not be a frequent commenter. The demons compel me to blog, and so then I consider any audience comments/interactivity to be a bonus, really. And I enjoy reading your blog, too, also without commenting often. :^)
