Strawberries


I got the best surprise phone call yesterday! A friend of Tiffanie has a huge strawberry patch in her back yard and wanted to bring me a big bag of them to make jam out of! She brought me 6 1/2 pounds of fresh strawberries (that equaled about 300 strawberries) and I'm making Classic Strawberry Jam and a Strawberry Marsala Jam with Rosemary! The classic jam turned out really delicious! It's bright and tastes just like a fresh, summer strawberry. I'll be starting the other one today!


Now that breakfast is done we are headed to the river to watch Chinese Dragon Boat Races this afternoon!
(these weren't even the strawberries from the big bag, these were from the farmer's market that Adele and I went to this week--- we have Strawberries coming out our ears this weekend!)

I hope you've had a lovely weekend as well.
