Why exactly this?
For me, strawberries are like love at first sight. Juicy, bright, aromatic - they instantly lift your spirits, awaken your appetite for life and remind you that being happy is easy. Sometimes all you need is... a plate of strawberries with cream. Or at least a scented candle with the smell of your favorite berry. If you looked in my bag, there would definitely be strawberry-scented lip balm in it. And on the shelf in the bathroom - "strawberry mood" shower gel. And what about in the fridge? Of course, a basket of fresh berries, just in case. After all, life is unpredictable, and having sweets on hand never hurt anyone. What do we do when we love?
We pamper ourselves. And others. I make strawberry mousse for my friends, freeze berries for the winter (nobody said December is not the time for strawberry smoothies!), make jam according to my grandmother's recipe. And sometimes I just put a handful on a white plate, pour coffee and have a "summer breakfast alone". You know, sometimes you don't want to rush anywhere. Just strawberries, morning and yourself.
Strawberries and feelings. There is something in this berry... dangerously attractive. It is not for nothing that it is called the berry of passion. Psychologists say that the aroma of strawberries excites and acts almost like a pheromone. And I will add: strawberries are about flirting with life. About the light touch of your fingers when you give a berry to someone you want to please. Or about that very strawberry stroke on your lips before the first kiss.
Do you like strawberries?
If yes, we are already friends in taste.
If not, give it a second chance. But not from the supermarket in February. But the real one - June, slightly warm from the sun, with the smell of childhood.
Maybe it is with this berry that your personal love story will begin. Or simply - a morning that you will later remember with a smile.
And I still dream of a summer date somewhere on the veranda. So that strawberries, a glass of pink wine, a sunset - and someone who looks as if he sees all summer in me.
