strawberry fields forever!
drove for 1 and a 1/2 hours down south to mornington peninsula to pick strawberries today! lalala... i'm a happy girl: easily satisfied with the simple things in life! nice big red juicy ones hanging from their stalk on the plant! the whole car smelled so good on the way back! (do NOT mispronounce it as store-berry to me. ever. grr.) strawberries are my new favourite fruit!!! :) i've not had a favourite fruit since secondary school, coming to think of it. it was watermelon back then. can't believe it's been such a long time since i've had a favourite fruit!
drove past acres and acres of vineyards and apple/cherry farms along the way. my dream to live on, and own a farm has been rekindled! on my farm, i want an orchard with apples, peaches, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, citrus-y fruit like lemons, grapefruit and oranges. and also a pumpkin patch! and i want cows. and sheep. and lots of happy frisky dogs! and about 4 fat and lazy cats roaming around the house! no chickens, please... i'll have a heartache if they get bird flu. but i'd like some ducks and a nice little pond.
later, was at my friends' place for a housewarming/birthday party and their place was a.w.e.s.o.m.e.! it was a nice cosy little place with wooden flooring, and a tiny living/dining area, lovely spaced-out 2nd floor with bedrooms, and a most exquisite little attic with a skylight. *swoons* at st kilda's too, right by the beach! and their rent is really reasonable too! they were really lucky to come by this place! and as usual, there was loads of booze. :) and loud spanish music since most of those angmohs were either mexican, spanish or columbian. or aussie of course. my first house party here!
so. the best way to eat the strawberries are to dip them in caster sugar. seriously. it gets really addictive.

i dont know why ... but your entry reminded me of this song "Of apple trees and honey bees and snow white turtle doves ... i want to sing the world a song ..." and yes i would like fresh store-berries too! But sg has such puny ones.
I love strawberries! It is my favourite fruit!
After reading your entry, i want some NOW!!
Yeah dipping them in sugar is a great way to eat them!
Sometimes i will pour some sugar water/syrup over it and then eat them. It tastes great too!
:P~~~~
twit: haha i want to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony... to my lovely fruit/creature farm! sigh... such an idyllic setting. *dreamy smile*
fat fingers: veryveryVERY red and big and juicy and ripe! dipping in caster sugar is the BEST way to eat them! oh, hershey's or cadbury's chocolate sauce is also yummy too! :@... heh!
helloooowie! u finally fulfilled ur dream of picking storebellys! funz funz funz! =D
hey sharn! i tried posting a comment yesterday but it didn't work... i've visited your blog before, but haven't had time to read it! i will be up to speed soon...
yay - now you can leave silly comments on my silly xanga! :)
btw, where's your faith in my taste in music?? i put up those teeny booper stuff as a form of mockery lah you...
just took a look at your pictures - is gotzon your cello?? did you have to pay to take up an entire seat?? i'm all caught up on your blog now!
elmo: don't bluff! i know you like teenybopper music ok... :D you closet lindsay lohan fan, you! haha! yeah, gotzon's my cello. paid full student fare for an extra seat so that he could be right next to me in the plane!
1st time travelling with him, that's why i was being overly cautious! next time i'll invest in one of those hard cello cases, so i can check him in. he's only 6kg! but he's huge, so he couldn't be a handcarry.
