Strawberries

Friday I took the kids and a friend and we went on our annual strawberry picking expedition. Last year was not a great year for strawberries (at least when we went), but this year they are excellent. We picked 11 buckets and have enjoyed them over the last several days. We made some strawberry jam; we had strawberries with my very favorite dip (1 jar of Nutella mixed with 1 16 oz carton of sour cream); we had strawberries and whipped cream on waffles; and we made some homemade strawberry ice cream. On top of that I have lots to go into the freezer for smoothies and such. What a great fruit!!!


Notice the empty bucket and where the strawberries are going! That was pretty much the story for her.
