Picking Peas and Berries

My peas are ripe! The pods are huge and totally full of peas. They're so sweet that we've been eating them whole, pod and all! The kids have loved being able to pull them right off the plant and eat them. I really want to plant peas again next year but I want to plant a lot more of them. I've been so pleased with the harvest and the taste that I hope to find a larger plot of land for next years crop.

I've been secretly making a list of vegetables I want to go for next year. I'd love to try watermelon, and pumpkins in addition to peas. I wonder if strawberries would be hard to grow. They have a variety here in Finland called Polka. It's super sweet and so good. Any suggestions?
