Strawberry Pickin' Time!

1 hour in the very early morning, with the cutest strawberry pickers, yielded 12 quarts of berries.


And the fruit of our labor...


I belive we have enough for 1 cup a week for the next year.  I'm betting it will only hold us until February 2012! ;-)

You did good! I am ready for some fresh strawberries myself, but they aren't quite ready.

You're supposed to make milkshakes and pies with that stuff! ;-D

Makes me miss my grandma's homemade jam.

LA: Do you make jelly or just mash 'em for smoothies, etc. Just curious what your house tradition is!

HJ - We made all 12 qt into jelly. If I was going out of town, I'd probably pick a few more qt to mash and freeze for ice cream and smoothies. My family LOVES the jelly. I call them jelly snobs. ;-D
