its strawberries time

One of the best things about living here....
Strawberries
they are beautiful
deep red 
strawberries
I've never had better!
 We love going and picking them at a local farm
 Simply AMAZING
we picked 30 pounds in about 30 minutes!
 Not sure how many we ate during those 30 minutes
 What do you do with 30 pounds...


Dip some in chocolate (of course)

Bowls full for breakfast, lunch and dinner

and smash them
 add some sugar and pectin
 and you get beautiful jam!
 We are going thru about a bottle a day
I may need more strawberries!


We also made strawberry shortcake, strawberries milk shakes and a happy anniversary cake







Oh so good
and yes
Eric and I celebrated 17 years!!!!
