Tiny harvest
This spring, the cherry tree near the house has many flowers. Unfortunately, they did not translate into very many cherries this year. There are just a few, scattered about. Walking past it today, I noticed some seemed to be nice and ripe. After trying a couple, I picked the rest that I could reach, and … Continue reading Tiny harvest
