An ode to my best friend, my first love + the most wonderful companion I ever could have asked for... my Apollo Creed 💜

Bright + bubbly notes of strawberry mingle with sweet sugar cane, strawberry leaf + green grass, while hints of earthy garden dirt + fresh air thread through. It's a strawberry explosion + one of my favorite memories translated into scent. 

There was a small strawberry patch in the backyard of our house when we bought it. Apollo would bound down the stairs to wander around in his new yard, free from having to be on a leash + concrete sidewalks for the first time in his life. That first spring, he'd burrow himself deep in that strawberry patch, munching away on all the strawberries he could find. His feet smelled like garden dirt + grass, strawberry leaves sticking out of his little beard + a look of sneaky accomplishment in his eye. He'd come scooting out from underneath the bushes just as happy as could be, his little belly full of strawberries.

At first, it was one of those "oh my gosh, how do I get him to stop doing that" things, but as I watched him get older + had to carry him outside instead of letting him go on his own, it became an endearing habit. I would sit on the porch watching him, and laugh every now + then when he'd look around to make sure he wasn't getting caught.

Apollo was my best friend for 16 years + the sudden adjustment to life without him here physically has been more difficult than I ever imagined. Finding the right words to convey how much Strawberry Patch means to me feels impossible, but I hope you can picture my little gremlin dog munching away on his secret garden of strawberry snacks when you smell it. I know Apollo is getting a kick out of his sneaky habit making me teary-eyed + sentimental now, and I hope you get a kick out of Strawberry Patch, too. I hope you wind up loving it as much as I do + it reminds you to hug your fur babies a little tighter 💜🍓
