Strawberries on the Vine
I don’t live in a fancy house with a fancy yard (or any yard, really) but we utilize what space we have and create space when necessary. Case in point, these strawberries grow in a large pot in our carport. We also have green beans and cilantro in another pot. When I was a little girl and we lived in the countryside my mother had a very proud strawberry patch growing alongside our house. The taste of store-bought strawberries wouldn’t touch for my taste buds until we moved to Pennsylvania, when I was six years old. One of life’s little joys is being able to spot a ripened strawberry off my own potted plant, pluck it and eat it on a sunny summer afternoon.
