You know how in spy and espionage movies, the stars always get these cool gadgets that come in little boxes with foam perfecting cut for the gadget?
Well, I got an order from Harry and David today- strawberries. My husband had purchased the Fruit of the Month club membership for me/us for my birthday.
Now, I know you're all shocked that me, who is more of a dairy girl and fresh fruits and vegetables, would like a Fruit of the Month club membership. Let me say that Harry and David do provide the best fruit I've ever had besides going to the road-side stands in California and getting a flat fresh from the farm.
But, the strawberries. So, we were told we'd be getting some strawberries for May.
And that seems like a good time because May was always the first strawberry harvest in Fresno- just in time for Mother's Day.
So, when we got the box in the mail and I saw that they were from California, I was reminiscing about the strawberry pizzas and strawberry shortcake that we used to make for Mother's Day...and how that might be nice to do this year....
...and then I saw that there were, quite literally, 20 strawberries in the box.
Each of the strawberries is quite large, palm-sized as a matter of fact, but I really wasn't expecting to have a shipment of strawberries show up with each strawberry nestled in high-tech foam...INDIVIDUALLY.
I had to check to make sure that they were actually strawberries and not high tech spy equipment
