Strawberry Fields

It seems there's a strawberry lover (or more) in the group.  And wouldn't you know, it'll be strawberry season when you're here!


I know that you can get strawberries almost the whole year there in Florida, but not here in Germany.  We have to wait for Mother Nature to warm things up before we get fresh - and good - strawberries.



These are strawberries we bought at the market yesterday.  They're from south Germany.  And I have to say they tasted really really good on the French toast this morning.


We can Erdbeeren selbst pflucken bei Asendorfs (pick your own strawberries at Asendorf's) (German looks very strange sometimes, doesn't it?).  It's a big farm near here where they grow them and it's not too far to bike. There's a cool store at the farm too where you can buy their own sausages and cheese and butter and such.  Even look at the animals. 

And if we get tired of picking, we can just buy some at the strawberry stand.  Either way they taste really good.
