Our First strawberry!!

[northepaul]

Thought I would share with you our first one of the year! The model is my beautiful daughter!!

[Florence Fennel]

Beautiful daughter, beautiful strawberry. Congratulations! Up here in the north mine have developed from the flowers this week, but are far away from ripening.

Awww such a lovely picture

Did she eat or share?! Who could blame her if she hogged that first taste of summer all to herself.

Both subjects quite 'delicious'!

I have the first signs of my strawberries blushing today - but it'll be a fair few days before they get like yours - enjoy!

[scarey55]

Woohoo, well done. Ours are just beginning to swell - nothing ripe yet though

[SueA]

That's a whopper, lovely photo. Who got to eat it?

[Nicos]

Gosh-you are way ahead of us!!!

What a whopper- did it taste as yummy as it looked ( note past tense- cos I bet it didn't even make it into the house did it???)

Just remembered me and grandson saw one at the lottie and we forgot to pick it will have to get it in the morning now.

[northepaul]

She gave it a wash and ate it up
She did tempt me by allowing me to smell it first though!!

[Nicos]

You must love her very, very much!!

We came back from holiday to 5 lovely ripe strawberries. Mmm mmm

[iggyboy]

arent home grown strawberries simply the best? They taste and look a million times better than the supermarket bought varieties. I am reliably informed that supermarket strawberries have to be able to withstand being dropped from a certain height and not bruise,this is so they can have a long shelf life. Plastic nonsense!!

Gosh-you are way ahead of us!!!

I always thought you'd be ahead of us,
We had 3 at the lottie on saturday one OH, one DS and one full of ants :O(.
DS gave me a little of his.
