Strawberries are here! I compiled my crew (look at those hooligans!) and hit the farm yesterday to pick our share.
The big kids are a big help, especially miss almost 7 who picked more than me and took care of baby brother. I am so thankful for her hardworking, sweet self!
The little brothers were pretty wonderful too, at least this year Kasper understood that "picking strawberries" doesn't mean going to a farm and eating all the strawberries your belly can hold (but do notice the full pockets in the photo below)!
We managed to pick 27 pounds and made a few batches of jam when we got home. We were on fire!
And we were rewarded in the afternoon by a sweet package on our doorstep from Faster Caroline filled with gifts for each of us. Happiness!
And spent the next morning eating strawberry pancakes and dreaming up some fun projects from my new book. Tusind tak Caroline!
Finally the season of veggies from the garden and into the smoothie is here!
