Strawberries 🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓

What comes to mind when you think about or better yet see Strawberries 🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓?
Me?: lots and lots of RED. Small dots/ holes kinda. & the thought🤔 of its sweetness, its beauty and that it seems perfect that it looks fake☺

I don't remember the first time I tasted strawberries &/ where🤔 but recently I've started adding them to my diet and i love them! Thinking back to my younger days in Fiji when strawberry flavoured food products would be my very favourite ---from ice creams, yoghurts, cookies, chocolates, and so much more. Oh those were the days! In December 2017, I moved to the States which wasn't planned its more a personal reason that I have to stay for awhile.

There are currently two Cities that I live in, in California. Most of my time is spent in Petaluma and will talk about this city later in my blog. Here is where I picked up the Strawberry fest! Closer to Summer and them strawberries are blooming! 🍓

For the past 4 weekends now we have been getting a box of strawberries from a highway stand in Petaluma ---mind you next to their farm! They are freshly picked on Fridays and today resulting from being early we got strawberries that were just picked ten minutes before!! [To edit: i will post photos of the market and hopefully the farm in the near future --- be sure to look out for that addition. Keep in mind i just decided today to start a new blog 😉]. Anyway did I tell you how much I love them? Totally! It can be for breakfast, lunch, dinner, for desert (either with ice cream or whipped cream) and baked for cake mmmm. They don't last long though, so when you get them make sure to use them within the next 2 - 3 days.

Fav desert: ice-cream, strawberries, whip-cream
