Love Thursday: Strawberry o’ Love
I wasn’t going to blog today (already going to break my 3-day-a-week rule!), but I just couldn’t hold in the love any longer.
Remember Tomato Love from a few weeks ago?
Well now we have some strawberry lovin’ goin’ on around here:
Happy Love Thursday everyone!

Beautiful, heart-shaped strawberry! I’ve been trying to find some strawberries to grow, with no luck. I know you are having a great time with your mom! Happy Love Thursday right back at ya!
Andrea’s last blog post..I’m Fifty!
I’ve never grown strawberries, but I’d like to…maybe next year I’ll have my very own heart-strawberry 🙂 And yes, GREAT time, thanks!
You have some Motherly love going on too. I hope she has a lovely time.

I *think* she’s having a lovely time…I sure hope so too 😉
You really have an eye for finding heart shapes! Funny that you posted a strawberry as our local strawberry patch just put up their strawberries for sale sign yesterday.
Mmm…eat some for me 🙂
This really needs to be dipped in chocolate and served with champagne!

I like the way you think Joanne 🙂
Great minds think alike ! I was going to post the same thing today, but it got eaten…
I’ve decided for the Marmite. Still have to get the post up though !

Can’t wait to see the Marmite 🙂
You find love everywhere. It’s inspiring.

Little things definitely make me happy, and finding reminders of love is definitely one of them 🙂
Yum. Looks like it would be a juicy one. Wanna share?

Sorry Robin–too late!
That makes me hungry. Gnn.
Here’s a query: do strawberries freeze into what can only be called ‘sorbet-fruit’, like grapes, or do they go mushy?
Mikeachim’s last blog post..5 Reasons To Be Elsewhere
Mike, I believe they do indeed go mushy after being frozen, but a great way to freeze them for a dessert, for example, would be to freeze them in a sugary syrup and then serve them over ice cream or cake 🙂
That has got to be the most perfectly shaped heart. Beautiful.
Happy LT

Perfect isn’t it?!
Love it! It’s strawberry season here in Maryland but i am all strawberried out since making 24 jars of strawberry jam !
That would definitely do it for me too Enza! But strawberry jam *is* my favorite….
Yum…all it needs is some dipping chocolate….
ursula’s last blog post..What an EXCELLENT morning!
Sounds perfect 🙂
ahh strawberries, have yet to have one sweet to perfection this year, but I know I will taste such delight soon.
In other fruit news…
left a small peach (or perhaps it was a nectarine) in the car, all day, about 90 degrees. Stuck in traffic, Cheese and I were starving, I got the peach from the backseat, it felt really hot in my hand, I thought it would be gross, but I bit into it, and it was delicious, we fought over it, each insisting on getting every other bite. We held it over a plastic bag to catch any juiciness our mouths missed.
So I see your strawberry love, and match you with my hot peach love.
Taffiny, that is *awesome* fruit news! And I can’t help but noting that you and peaches certainly get along well 😉
What an extraordinary berry!
