Strawberry Time . . .


               Right on the cusp of the Strawberry Moon . . .the Strawberries were ready to be picked in the field. I don't think I will ever grow tired of fresh strawberries picked right from the field. I can remember back as far as I can, going to the fields and picking Berries.  First with my mom, then single, then pregnant with a friend from NYC who had never done that before.  Then with babes by my sides and on my back and now with a teen or 2 or even with my 85 year old Dad who still goes out to pick.  Eating them fresh is my personal favorite but also like them in a smoothie, strawberry glazed pie, Chocolate covered, with biscuits, with angel Food cake and made into jam.  Fresh on Pancakes or waffles or Crepes, is there any way not to eat a strawberry?  Whats your favorite way?
