Strawberry Sweetness

My grandma and I took the kids strawberry picking on Monday. To say we were successful in the berry patch may be a bit of an understatement. Over~ zealous is a bit more like it. We picked 30 lbs. in about 45 minutes; and I have been cleaning and prepping berries ever since. I am typing with berry stained hands, but our freezer is chock full of strawberry goodness!
  • the kids inhaled enough fresh berries to turn their skin pink;)
  • 20 half pints of freezer jam
  • 2 nites of strawberry shortcake for dessert
  • several pounds of plain frozen berries (can't wait to use these for smoothies!)
  • and, 2 huge containers of frozen vanilla greek yogurt~dipped berries
