Strawberries

In the strawberry patch with those that the Blackbirds DIDN'T steal!
I mooshed those little suckers up (NOT the Blackbirds) and made them into ice-cream.
Recipe over at Cooking with Freefalling if you're interested.

Have I Mentioned....

......I love irises?
Oh. I have.
Well, just in case you didn't quite catch it the first several times,
I love irises.
Here's my pink one
(from the Bunninyong markets)

Baby Fruit Parade

When that world food shortage kicks in,
we'll be right for fruit.
We can probably feed the rest of Ararat, too.
And neighbouring towns.
And neighbouring small countries.

Oh, and we have a Loquat tree and a Pomegranate tree too.
But they haven't made any babies yet.
