Oh dear I am very, very tired after working hard in my garden all day long. You can see from my photo though that a sunbeam is landing on me, to give me back some energy.I am pleased to tell you that I found one tiny, ripe strawberry waiting for me when I went out to water my plants this morning . There it was peeping out at me from under a big leaf. I know it will not make much of an impression in my fruit bowl, but it is still a joy to be able to pick my own home grown strawberry however small it may be. It is almost as small as a wild strawberry and I know by now you must be thinking that I am talking far too much about my one strawberry but you see, it is the little things in life that are the most joyful to me . And this strawberry is most certainly little!!

Sherbet makes a new strawberry patch
Oh what a beautiful morning. Oh what a lovely blue sky. Oh what a perfect light, cooling breeze. Oh what harmonious sounds filling the air all around me . Ahh, I feel so lucky to be alive and so blessed to be living here at Clover Cottage with my amazing garden to relax in.
Yes, I know I said relax but in fact I have a little bit of work to do in my garden. I am making a new strawberry patch. I have to dig up a little corner of my garden not far from my oak tree, pick out all the stones and smooth down the soil again, then I will surround it with big rocks to make it look like a special little area. I have lots of new strawberry plants from the garden shop in the village and I will plant them and care for them and wait patiently for them to make lovely big juicy strawberries.
Yes, I know what you are all thinking! It is true, - you are reading my mind. When the strawberries are ripe I will give a whole basket full to Pearl and she will make lots of jars of delicious strawberry jam. I wish you could all come and share it with me, Pearl makes the best jam in the whole wide world. Love from Sherbetx
