My one ripened strawberry will be picked and put to the test by the OH, she will be blindfolded and take the taste test, shop against Kev's one solitary special strawberry. I will be back later with the results. ;D ;D ;D
Give her two from the shop and I bet she still says one of them is yours. (You could then eat your own yourself.) ;D ;D ;D
waiting with bated breath ;D
Ooooh, the suspense ;D
This should be interesting!

The results are as follows: market (not shop) a bit sour needs a sugar dip, and Kev's strawberry mmmmmmm wait for it so sweet, succulent, gorgeous, :P OK I said enough of me what about the strawberry ;), I mean the strawberry she said. Well there you have it home growing triumphs again, long live the lotties. ;D ;D ;D

you Silver tongued rascal ........ ;D
Excellent - the proof is in the eating. Long live lottie food. ;D
ha ha ha well today I could actually pick my first BOWL of lottie strawbs! resisted the temptation to eat any but the smell....mmmm gorgeous. No doubt my lot will just wolf them down without a word ::)
But fresh picked strawbs are heaven!!! no doubt about it. They list with that small extremely red tomaty that was hiding from you for weeks and is absolutely bursting with sweet juice, the inner leaves of those new lettuces from the early summer and a sweet skinny green bean that you pick and pop straight in the gob. yum yum yum
