Of strawberries and slacking

It's the simple things, right? Like the joy of heading to the farmer's market one Saturday morning, and finding the first strawberries of the season. I bought a basket right off, and started nibbling on them right away. Around the corner, I ran into a couple friends, who reminded me that strawberries go great with the lemon quark from Spring Hill Farms.

So here's today's breakfast. Eaten, as I frequently do, on the front porch. I live in an apartment with no deck or yard, so the only outside space that's mine is the front porch. It's nice to watch the neighbors walk by, and read a book in the fresh air. Today, I watched the rain.



Slices of Acme sour batard, topped with lemon quark and sliced strawberries. A cup of tea hibiscus and peppermint tea. An interesting combination, but probably not one I'll be repeating hot. It'd make a great iced tea for hotter places, though.

Also, I seem to have lost my camera somewhere in my house (odd, since I live in a tiny studio, but less odd given the state of my housekeeping) so iPhone photos will be the rule of the day for awhile. I've actually avoided posting for a few weeks, because I couldn't find my camera, but after some prodding to update, I've decided not to care.
