My mother and I left early yesterday morning for the strawberry u-pick.
 |
| By the time we got there...so had everyone else... |
 |
| We passed this beautiful field of mustard..and there was an old barn...I made my mother stop the car so I could take a picture..she thinks I'm crazy. |
 |
| Continuing on the garden theme we have lots of swiss chard and garlic scapes in our garden. I made pesto with the garlic scapes, it is quite strong but yummy. |
 |
| I don't know what I like better delphiniums or hydrangea |
 |
| When I got home I realized just how many strawberries I had...a lot. |
 |
| Enough for a few chocolate dipped strawberries |
 |
| 12 bottles of jam later...and I still have 2 giant bowls of strawberries in the fridge. I'm thinking strawberry/rhubarb pies...and perhaps a daiquiri...or two? |
Wow! What fun, and haven't you been busy making all that jam?!! I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way about old barns. When we were in NC, I was constantly having my husband stop the car so I could take a photo of one!
Wow! You've been busy! Strawberry season around here is in May. They're long gone by now!
ReplyDeleteWow! Those look so good! I love strawberry rhubarb pineapple jam. The cutest little gas station dinner where we used to get breakfast in the Berkshires used to have bowls of it on the tables. I couldn't get enough of it.
