Heaven in my hand

Or, rather, mouth. I just came in from the garden with a little cupful of blueberries, the first two tomatoes of the season -- Sungold -- and a huge strawberry, perfectly ripened, which I promptly rinsed and ate. Wonderful! It must be from the everbearing, rather than from the June-bearing, and I didn't know if the former would taste all that good. This one did!

I'm not certain the Sungolds are ripe, but they are orange and they are the first! Alas, the Stupice and other early heirlooms aren't even in the ground yet! I plan to set them out this weekend -- who knows if I'll see fruit, but it's worth a try.
