All I can say is I would not buy them again. Oh, that’s right, I didn’t buy them in the first place. Laura did. They were pretty and tasted fresh but I couldn’t describe the flavor. Not strawberry.
“Pineberry is a hybrid cross from Fragaria chiloensis and Fragaria virginiana.[1] A pineberry is smaller than a common strawberry, measuring between 15 to 23 mm (0.6 to 0.9 in). When ripe, it is almost completely white, but with red achenes (the seeds). The plant is disease-resistant, and highly priced, although not profitable due to small-scale farming, small berry size and low yield.[2]” Wikipedia
St.Martin’s Day was celebrated Thursday evening at the school.
First the story of St.Martin was told to the families inside the school. Then the families went outside to see the circle of all the school children. The children carried lanterns they’d made and gathered in a circle to sing. There were candles along the stairs and paths to light the darkness.

That night Martin had a vision of Jesus Christ wearing the half-cloak.”
