We're Never Leaving

Look at this pretty field. Technically, this bit is raspberry and gooseberry, but just over the road on the right is an enormous field of strawberries.


So I had to pick some, naturally. The good ones were hard to find. A family of six came strolling out of the field with at least 8 large baskets full. Awful people. They obviously stripped my berries.

Iain tried to help, but he couldn't figure out the difference between leaves and berries. Still, he enjoyed the fact that he could reach right out and examine everything.

Eventually, I found a bunch of plants The Marauders missed.

The results:

Yum! Iain's been eating strawberries like mad ever since. Me, too. And Bart.
