Last Fruits

Sunday afternoon we picked the last of the summer strawberries. It was hard work because they were almost gone. It is also extra hard work for me, with my inability to crouch. However, true to form, I kept reaching down and picking berries even as my back was spasming and Mrs Holford was repeating that it was time to get Aidie home for his nap.

I froze a lot of them. Tonight I'm eating the last few fresh ones. I discovered to my dismay that my double cream had gone off, so I'm eating them with just a little sugar on top. As Aidie would whisper, "Tasty!"
