Friday Photo: Matterhorn Appears
October 7th, 2011
After a day of rain in Zermatt and fresh snow in the mountains at night, we awoke to see the Matterhorn peaking out from the clouds. It turned out to be a spectacular day of trekking. Our Med Spa Series continues next week.
Friday Photo: Carpet of Yellow Strawberries
June 30th, 2011
Fraise de bois or woodland strawberries are ripe and you can smell the sweet fragrance while approaching the garden. I wish the tiny yellow berries weren’t so fragile, because they only last one day after picking. The plants multiply and spread every year, so they form a beautiful green carpet beneath my espalier apple tress.
