Thanks for the compliment! I'm getting quite a lot of food out of my tiny garden, at least half of what I eat, so I am pretty proud of it.
lol I gotta tell ya, those strawberries appear to have survived a very harsh winter in that planter, with no attempt to protect it. I'm kind flummoxed about it, because I hadn't planned to use it for strawberries again this year, and I got plenty frozen to last me for one more. But it was spectacular! It was disease free! And productive!
Good time to move to the sticks! I was stuck in the suburbs. I called everyone I knew and asked "are you social distancing?" If they said yes, I took them off my friends list. If they said no, I hightailed it over to their houses. I walked the wrong way in the grocery stores and parks, for my sanity! My home remained exactly the same. When I see people still doing the nonsense (quarantining for ten days after any positive test, and at least three days after a subsequent negative test, for instance) I know they have been brain damaged.
I did exactly the same and not a single person challenged me, though I did get quite a few disapproving stares. The only thing I couldn't do without a mask was to get on the bus to Dublin without being arrested, and I didn't fancy that.
I still have frozen strawberries too but you can never have too many strawberries!
I used to agree, but now I certainly can have too many strawberries, because I also have loads of frozen raspberries. I'm madly eating those. I hate canning, so the jelly I intended to make, never got made. In three months, I will have lots of them fresh. I'm thinking of letting the birds take as many as they want.
What a problem we have...too much food! I have food popping up everywhere and April/May are supposed to be the hungry gap.
Honing it all down to what you need and will actually like eating is part of the learning curve, a big part. I feel a post coming on...
Go on, go on, go on, go on.........
