Strawberry Delights...

Look what arrived in my mailbox today...

How pretty is that? I think I could sit and stare at that cover all day long. I really want those red and white plates too by the way. We have a local farm market that you can go and pick fresh strawberries from and after looking through this issue I am getting very excited to spend an early morning picking juicy, red strawberries. I come home with baskets of strawberries and while the majority of them get eaten before I can even use them, we do end up having plenty of Strawberry Shortcake. Nothing can beat Strawberry Shortcake in my book, especially topped with homemade whipped cream. I usually go pick strawberries around the first of May which after seeing these recipes can't come soon enough.

    I absolutely LOVE strawberries! Every year I tell myself I am going to pick some fresh ones. Perhaps this is the year... That way I can make something like those! Yum!
    Have a great evening!
    Love,

    Christy -- I love the new look of the blog. You are always so inspirational to me!

    We picked up a flat of strawberries this weekend at Costco. Eh. Not too impressed with the flavor. I guess even down here in "the south," you can jump the gun on ripe berries. Oh well.

    Hope you are well, and, um, your neice? I don't know who swooned more, me or Seth. He just stood over her and grinned and rocked her car seat gently. Gives me hope for August!

    Strawberry Shortcake is one of my favorites. I'd much rather take a fruit dessert than a chocolate one!!
