Ever since I was a little tiny munchkin I've LOVED STRAWBERRIES. They're absolutely the sexiest, sweetiest, cutiest desserts on the planet! Once I went to college, I began trying other fruits more often like bananas, frozen grapes, mango, blueberries etc... and began to think that strawberries weren't my favorite because they just weren't as sweet as I remembered them when i was a little girl. Why? Because they were filled with nasty preservatives and weren't organic/local/ the way God intended them to be when he created the beautiful Strawberry!! Now that i shop at whole foods (by cutting out those extra unneeded coffee's from Starbucks and doing my laundry at the Brownbag on Mercer) I have encountered the sweet Strawberry from my youth. Now it's more obvious then ever why SHE beats all other fruit from the inside out....
1. Strawberries are fierce and unafraid! Can you think of any other fruit that has the spunk to wear it's seed's on the outside of it's body? Thats because strawberry, she's got nothing to hide.
2. She's always wearing her hair sassy and down, right on top of her head, showing off her beauteous hair; she's not bald....
3. She's the best color in the world , my personal favorite, RED. Also associated with fire, love, christmas, hot, alluring, standing out, the best color lipstick, hearts, sexy girl in the red dress.... I mean she's got style!
4. She forces you to kiss her when you take a bite. How sneaky is she?! You have to hold her by her hair and take that pursed lips kiss bite~ she's just brilliant at stealing kisses.
5. She's curvy and proud of it! Whoever saw a skinny strawberry and thought, "mmmm yummm!" yeah i think not!
6. She's full of anti-oxidants which not only promotes youth (she's all about looking youthful) but gets rid of free radicals causing you're enemy... CELLULITE! yeah that's right! she's a super hero against cellulite! That in and of itself makes her any girls best friend(sorry dogs....)
7. She tastes so sweet and can be for breakfast lunch or dinner, she's so kind she has no problem hanging out with other fruits...she's just so popular cause she's such a nice girl. Fruit bowl or smoothie for breakfast-of course! Blueberries? yes. Bananas? Yes. Pineapples? Oh yes. They all love her! Lunch-she tastes delicious in salads, as a dressing, or even a strawberry tea if you're skipping lunch because you have a hot date.... And dessert? PUL-EEEEZE! Strawberries and whipp cream? Nuff-Said. Why even bother going into the beautiful strawberry cheescakes, pies, and cookies when the simplicity of strawberries and whip cream is the ultimate answer always.
I could go on and on about why I love her but she really doesn't need a blog about her, she's just fabulous on her own. But hopefully you've been enlightened about some of my personal reasons to love her!
Thank you God for a dessert way better then anything processed humans try to muster up!
