Strawberries

A month ago, we had picked up some old wooden boxes for a strawberry garden.  My own experience with strawberries generally went like this: I would plant some plants, watch hopefully as some berries grew, then collapsed in despair as the day they ripen an insect had beat me to them.  But Liz was hopeful.

And her hopes were not dashed upon the rocks.  This last weekend I was tending to my garden and saw these (tasty):

Aside from the Japanese beetles, the bugs have been rather merciful to our produce.  In light of these successes, garden expansion plans are in discussion.
