We grow more strawberries three times a year here than anyone |

Where I live except ........
Strawberry Fields Forever Lennon/McCartney
Lyrics: Let me take you down cause I'm going to strawberry fields Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about Strawberry fields forever
Living is easy with eyes closed Misunderstanding all you see It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out It doesn't matter much to me
Let me take you down cause I'm going to strawberry fields Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about Strawberry fields forever
No one I think is in my tree I mean it must be high or low That is you can't, you know, tune in but it's all right That is I think it's not too bad
Let me take you down cause I'm going to strawberry fields Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about Strawberry fields forever
Always know sometimes think it's me But you know I know when it's a dream I think I know I mean, ah yes but it's all wrong that is I think I disagree
Let me take you down cause I'm going to strawberry fields Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about Strawberry fields forever Strawberry fields forever strawberry fields forever

2. the weather is cool here at night |
|
and the strawberries they send out are variety that lasts on the market. I had those from Denmark, Colorado and Germany. good ones last 3 days and are not sent to market. we get those here.
But none have tasted as bitter or sweet than what Lennon said.

3. Is it true that a strawberry gets its name |
|
from the straw that was spread over the berries to protect them from the frost?
Somebody should spread some straw on the constitution before it freezes.

5. Eloys and moorlocks, indeed |
|
Sweet strawberries are the best, if they're too tart, a little icing sugar and vanilla, or chopped fresh mint.
