Strawberry Madness

It's strawberry season!

The strawberry's in our garden have to be picked once a day now, hopefully for a while yet too! They taste great on ice cream, in shakes, in pies and cakes, strawberry coolers......and the rest are being frozen for winter use.

We've got bags and bags of old milk bags filled with hulled strawberries ready for the freezer.

And can't forget the strawberry jam! Jessica made a big batch of strawberry jam. We use the mushier and older strawberries, as they make a great and sweeter jam! (aka less sugar.....which some of us may complain about...just a little!) *Grin*

Hopefully soon it will be raspberry time - My favourite! That means rasperry ice cream meringues are in order! (Smile)

  1. Funny, we've got bags and bags of strawberry bags filled with milk. And it's still strawberry time! Get out, pick some, and make raspberry jam out of 'em.
    There's another work for (smile), it's called :)
