Strawberries!!!

Local Crager-Hager farm strawberries are in season and what delicious fun it has been. I am looking forward to visiting the strawberry field in person soon so there will be even more deliciousness to come. My favorite way to consume the berries is just plain, lightly chilled but when they are bountiful, I breakout into pastry creativity & jam making.

    Your photos are stunning! I never knew strawberries could look so good! Also, they are making my mouth water--as a cook, I'm dreadful. I so admire those who who are talented in the kitchen.
