Strawberry season is finally here in San Diego, fresh from the Carlsbad Strawberry Fields. The juicy critters always seem to be a little unripe this time of year, so I asked the Strawberry Guy for a hint. Put them in a bag with a banana?
"No", he said, "put them out in the sun".
I think it's working. They've be out about three hours, and they're getting that ripe strawberry smell. M-mmm. Maybe strawberry crepes for dinner. A helluva lot better than Girl Scout cookies for breakfast. I'll try not to think of the Northeast digging themselves out of another snowstorm.

Mmmm...those strawberries sure look good! I wonder if they respond to red paper under them like tomatoes supposedly do??
And who's been eating Girl Scout cookies for breakfast, hm?
Check the post on Secret Canyon.
I can smell those strawberries all the way over here. Yum! And crepe pictures, please. ^ ~
The sun thing didn't work very well. Maybe they have to be out longer.
