June's Strawberry~Blue Moon!
JUNE 30, 2007
The full moon in June is called a "_Strawberry Moon_"!!! And, this June 30th moon is also the second one this month, so it is also a "_Blue Moon_"!!!
Since I was a little girl, strawberries have been my favorite fruit, ripe and in season, for a treat dipped in dark chocoate, or just hot and juicy from the plant....
So it is no surprise that you will find that I have a collection of strawberries, mostly gifts, I think I have only made two purchases in my life!!! I also have a collection of strawberry Christmas ornaments. My mother has given me one a year for the past twenty-years, so it is quite precious to me!
Here are some of the strawberries that you will find in my kitchen and office...
Enjoy!

I love these two strawberry faeries...
given to me by my mother many moons ago...
as well as this little lady who flies above our kitchen table...
This bunch of strawberries were stitched for me by mom's stitching group, "The Scarlets," when Milt and I got married...
and this little strawberry pot is less than 1 inch in height!
May this last day of June bring you an abundance of delicious summer and the fullness to be found in it, in the light of the strawberry~blue moon!!!
