  1. Hmm I'm not sure what #strawberry 's 'dynamic playlist' is supposed to do - I'd been using that for a few months since switching from Rhythmbox and felt I hadn't heard some tracks for ages; so I switched to using 'all tracks' in 'shuffle all' - and it is playing tracks that I hadn't heard in the last few months. Weird.

  4. Any love for #reddeadredemption2 put there? I mean seriously. I miss it! I used to enjoy the side missions more than the story. I would literally go fishing with headphones on just to enjoy the soundscape, or wander around picking herbs, looking for #dinosaur fossils etc etc. Just suck a beautiful game. I often find myself day dreaming about walking through the flowes in 'big valley' or driving my house out of #strawberry

  14. Celebration of the #Strawberry

    "In the #Haudenosaunee culture, the strawberry is considered a gift from the Creator and the first berry of the season holds a special place for the #Oneida. The earliest of the sweet red berries are celebrated with a special ceremony in mid-June and the fruit holds the distinction of being the Oneida name for June – Awʌ́hihte’ (a-WUH-heat).

    "Oneidas use strawberries in many ways and often flavor just about all foods and drinks with them come early summer. Some are eaten immediately; some are mashed and mixed with corn to make #StrawberryBread and some are mashed and dried in strips (sometimes called '#StrawberryLeather') to be used later in cooking or to eat alone.

    "The juice, or '#StrawberryWater,' is known to promote health and well-being and is a feature of various ceremonies. #MedicinalTeas also can be made from the leaves and roots of the plant, helping to heal such ailments as diarrhea and inflamed, achy joints.


    Strawberry Drink Recipe:

    Ingredients:
    - 1 quart of fresh strawberries
    - 1 cup of sugar or to taste (or maple syrup, the traditional sweetener)
    - ½ gallon of water

    Wash and hull strawberries and place in blender or food processor with sugar and mix together. Pour into pitcher and thoroughly stir in water to blend.

    Refrigerate to cool."

  16. #Haudenosaunee #Strawberry Drink Recipe

    It's finally strawberry season in San Diego, and what better to celebrate than with a fresh pitcher of traditional, Haudenosaunee strawberry drink?

    Posted by Lauren J. Mapp, April 10, 2016

    "#Strawberries are an important part of the Haudenosaunee food culture, so much so that they are even mentioned in our creation story. According to one version, the Earth was created when a woman fell from the Sky World and landed on a turtle's back. Many water animals tried to dive to find mud from under the sea, but the only one to survive was a muskrat. He brought mud up from deep below the surface of the water and put it on the turtle's back, helping to create Turtle Island as we know it today.

    "When the #SkyWoman died and her body was buried, various plants sprouted from the earth. The #ThreeSisters of corn, beans and squash came from her head; tobacco from her heart; and various medicines and strawberries from her feet.

    "Strawberries are known to have many health benefits: they are good sources of Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Vitamin B-6 and folate; they're rich in antioxidants; and they are a natural blood thinner.

    "Today, strawberries remain an integral part of our culture, and are celebrated each year through singing, dancing and storytelling in June during the #StrawberryFestival. The following recipe for Haudenosaunee strawberry drink uses sugar instead of the more traditional maple sap (which is pretty much impossible to find in Southern California), but the flavor of this juice makes for another way to enjoy this delightful fruit.

    Ingredients:
    🍓2 pints of fresh strawberries
    🍓2 TBS sugar
    🍓Fresh, filtered Water (enough to fill pitcher)

    Recipe:
    1. Remove leaves from strawberries, then slice them lengthwise.
    2. Save 6 strawberries-worth of slices and mash remaining strawberries with a fork, muddler or potato masher.
    3. Mix sugar with mashed strawberries, and then add the mixture and sliced strawberries to a 1 gallon pitcher.
    4. Fill the remainder of the pitcher with fresh water and enjoy. Can be served chilled or over ice.

    Note: You can omit the sugar if you desire a less sweet or healthier juice. You can also substitute agave syrup, maple sap (not syrup) or honey for the sugar - just add a little at a time until it is the desired level of sweetness."

  18. A Brief History of the #Strawberry

    By Peggy Trowbridge Filippone
    Updated on June 24, 2022

    "The strawberry is a member of the rose family, with the most common varieties being a hybrid of the wild Virginia strawberry (native to North America) and a Chilean variety. The plant produces succulent, red, conical fruit from tiny white flowers, and sends out runners to propagate.

    Why Are They Called Strawberries?

    Most likely the word strawberry comes from the Old English streawberige because the plant sends out runners which could be likened to pieces of straw.

    But others contend the practice of mulching strawberries with straw or finding them growing wild among matted hay or straw led to their name. And yet, other pundits believe the name came from the practice of selling the berries skewered on a piece of straw in open-air markets as a treat.

    Where Do Strawberries Come From?

    Strawberries are native to North America, and Indigenous peoples used them in many dishes. The first colonists in America shipped the native larger strawberry plants back to Europe as early as 1600. Another variety, also was discovered in Central and South America, is what the conquistadors called '#futilla.' Early Americans did not bother cultivating strawberries because they were abundant in the wilds.

    Although they have been around for thousands of years, strawberries were not actively cultivated until the Renaissance period in Europe. The plants can last for five to six with careful cultivation, but most farmers use them as an annual crop, replanting yearly. Strawberries are social plants, requiring both a male and a female to produce fruit. Crops take eight to 14 months to mature."

  20. It's #Strawberry season here in #Maine! We have native #WildStrawberries growing in our garden and yard. Commercial strawberries are a hybrid between Wild Strawberries and Chilean Strawberries (I just learned that)!

    Wild Strawberry (Fragaria virginiana)

    "Fragaria virginiana, commonly known as Wild Strawberry, Virginia Strawberry, or Common Strawberry, is a delightful native perennial herb that serves as both an attractive ground cover and a valuable food source for wildlife and humans alike. This member of the Rosaceae (rose) family creates extensive low-growing mats through spreading runners, producing the familiar three-leaflet leaves, pristine white flowers, and bright red berries that have made strawberries beloved worldwide.

    "Despite its diminutive stature — typically growing only 3 to 6 inches tall — Wild Strawberry plays an outsized role in North American ecosystems. The plant spreads by runners (stolons) to form dense colonies that provide ground-level habitat and food resources throughout the growing season. The white flowers, which appear in spring, give way to small but intensely flavorful red berries that are eagerly consumed by birds, mammals, and humans. These berries are the ancestors of all modern cultivated strawberries, though they remain much smaller and more intensely flavored than their domesticated descendants.

    "Ecologically, Wild Strawberry serves as an important early-season nectar source when few other plants are flowering, while its dense mat-forming growth provides crucial ground cover that prevents soil erosion and creates habitat for small wildlife. The plant’s ability to thrive in both full sun and partial shade, combined with its tolerance for various soil conditions, makes it an excellent choice for naturalistic gardens, woodland edges, and areas where a low-maintenance, wildlife-friendly ground cover is desired."

  22. #threegoodthings from today:

    1. Healthy #strawberry #seedlings taking root and beginning to mature.

    2. #Haskap #berries are more abundant and riper after I pruned the bush at the end of winter.

    3. Pre-made, pre-portioned frozen beans, rice and seasoning staples are awesome for a healthy brunch when I want something to go with fresh cut or frozen #vegetables, topped with salsa, curry or soup.
