Ahh, strawberries! My grandmother began picking strawberries as a child in Monett Missouri. That would be around 1912, when she was six years old. I have an old OLD picture of her as a young girl, maybe around 13 or so, taken at the fruit stand where the strawberries she picked were sold. The caption on the back reads “Best day! Picked 100 boxes!”. Southwest Missouri is still known for its strawberries.
Not fair. My dad took me fishing once and he was seasick on a lake that was so still it looked like glass. You looked like you really hated that strawberry.
Heh, as a Portuguese native speaker, at first I was misled too (I thought “piscar” was “to fish” in Spanish, even though it is also “pescar” in Portuguese); fun enough, “piscar” is actually “to blink” in Portuguese! :-D

“Ella está embarazado” is Spanish, but it does not mean “She is embarrassed.”

Great little Spanish to English lesson, thank you, Pedro. A rich and interesting language.
