“one must ask children and birds how cherries and strawberries taste.”

the first native strawberries are coming into season here in maine and last night my mom brought some home from a local farm. when my dad asked her how much they were, she just said, "you don't want to know, just enjoy them." it made me very excited because this morning i got up and put the scarlet beauties atop my cereal, this - along with a glass of concord grape juice - makes up my favorite summer breakfast (until local blueberries come into season!). good things come in small green boxes.
