Paraskevidekatriaphobia

That's hard to spell, it means fear of Friday, the 13Th( today). The 13Th date which falls on any Friday of the year is considered to be unlucky, its a superstition. I didn't know it till today did you?.

Some facts:
Many places do not have 13Th street
Many buildings do not have a 13Th floor
Many airplanes do not have a 13Th row
Many ships will not start a voyage on the 13Th, particularly, Friday the 13Th.............

Time For Strawberry/Cherry Picking

That's fun, I didn't know till I went. If in your part of country , if its still there then do go.

Strawberry Farms

1. Do wear a cap or cooling glasses ( Unlike me, its really hot).
2. Be very careful while plucking strawberries, they are delicate unlike cherries.
3. Don't pluck the ones which are very ripe.
4. Don't miss the fun of getting on to a tractor and climbing cherry trees( remembered the child hood days of climbing mango trees).
5. Do not immediatley wash strawberries as soon as you get home, they are more prone to get spoilt. Wash them when you are ready to use them.


Tractor that takes you to the farms.





Time for strawberry muffins and cherry Clafouti.(For recipies you shud ask my sis)
The next season is for apple picking.
