Saw $1.50 boxes yesterday at a Wal-Mart.

Actually quite sad. I can get strawberries at the corner on my way home for 2 bucks, or 2.50 at the supermarket. I sure hope Swedish strawberries are as good as they say.

It’s said that Swedes have a much lower standard of living than Mississippians. If $27 for 1/2 a pound of strawberries is typical of what Swedes pay for things, they probably are worse off.

You’ll find them at the 27 Dollar Store.

Sweden has socialized medicine. Liberals point to Sweden as our model to emulate. Why can’t we have $27 strawberries if they are correct?

Maybe the banana crop in Sweden will be good this year, too.

Last year at the local strawberry farms they were $10/flat.

Curious if they will go up in price this year.

My strawberry plants are blooming and have some set already.

My blackberries have just started to bloom.

My peach trees, plum bushes and cherry bushes have some fruit set.

My apple trees are just blooming. As is the Persimmon Tree.

My pear trees have fruit set.

Looks like we might actually get some fruit this year.

Last year a late frost after May 1 killed all the fruit.

The best thing is the price. Nothing out of pocket. But they have to be watered.
