Fraises
It's strawberry season now in the Loire Valley. All the local varieties of strawberries are showing up in the markets now. They're still a bit pricey, but the prices will come down in the next few weeks.

My dad used to always say that strawberries were better than sex. I think maybe twice in my life I had berries that were so good I might have agreed with him!
