Giant strawberry

Exploring San Juan Isand, we stumbled across a collection of fabulously quirky folk art/sculptures set up at the end of someone's hidden driveway for passers by to enjoy. This old cement mixer, decorated as a strawberry and left open with a little bit of furniture inside, had a warm stove fire (see the smoke drifting out of the little chimney on the right), books and toys. Soooo cute. There was even a sign that the cats normally hanging out in there belong to the family and were not strays…

We've all heard the saying “money can't buy happiness,” but maybe food can. Why dream of winning the lottery if you can win the food lottery – that is, when you pay for a certain amount of your favorite food, and end up with more. Now that’s a real deal, my friends.

A big strawberry will be the fruit of your visit to downtown Ponchatoula, Strawberry Capital of Lousiana.

CAN you spot a fake story when you see it?
