Red Red Strawberry

Before I heading out on my Los Angeles trip next week, I am trying to get in as much of the Pacific Northwest as I can. Hard to leave when berries to pick are all over the place. Today I went to pick fresh strawberries. Why do I bother buying them from the store when the taste and real flavor of strawberry is missing? I forget this until I get a chance to pick and eat organic strawberries on a farm. The sweetness is divine. Reminds me of my childhood when we went to pick berries every year. Somehow in the maze and haze of busy life, such simple activities are forgotten.
