Strawberries
Strawberry picking can be somewhat of a gamble, due to heat, bugs, mud/dirt, ease of the harvest, and most importantly, the mood and tolerance of the family. But this time we won --the humidity was tolerable, we had plenty of bug spray, we had nice dry dirt that a stroller could ride on, we had plenty of divine strawberries, and best of all, we had happy, helpful and excited kids. We have been pretty lucky at Wegmyer Farms.
How much longer do I have before the kids realize this is work?
After picking so many strawberries we had to do something with them...
so we ate a lot
we made some delicious popsicles
and a strawberry pie.
