Strawberry Haiku

June 5, 2010

We picked our first strawberries from our backyard plants this week. This is insanely early for strawberries, in my opinion, but who's complaining.

We're waiting on the organic u-pick farm berries to ripen before we go strawberry pickin' in earnest. For now we'll snack on berries from the backyard.

Brienne and I wrote this haiku together yesterday at lunch while eyeing the bowl of berries for dessert.

juicy strawberries
sweet and yummy in a bowl
pop one in your mouth

PS. I'm fooling around these days with the contrast curve and deeper shadows presets in Bibble, my photo software. You may notice that in some of my photos (like that photo of Brienne), though mostly it's very subtle. Heavily editing photos is not something I'm really keen on doing but I'm having fun with the creativity of it right now.
