Summer Fruit

[liralen]

Jet is now eating blueberries, California strawberries, and cantaloup along with his usual apples, mandarin oranges, watermelon, honeydew, and finger berries (raspberries). Yay for summer fruit!!

Though... I still remember the time back when he was two-ish and we went to the Boulder Farmer's market and bought a very precious pint of wild strawberries, and the next thing I know he's sitting on some steps at the market polishing off the whole pint by himself and, even that young, leaving the leaves and cores of the fruit in a neat pile next to him.

Almost as good as when Fezzik ate nearly ten pounds of blueberries when he was just a nine-week-old puppy...

We got our first crop of mulberries off the tree today. Yay! And fresh corn is starting to show up at the supermarkets. Low produce prices is one of the things I'll miss about CA.

I remember your writeup of Fezzik's adventure. Well, they're blueberries, who could resist? :)

Ken bought me strawberries & cherries at the local market yesterday and the strawberries here have finally gotten over all of the rain and become intensely sweet. So lovely!
