We went berry picking. Thanks to friends up north we got twenty pounds of juicy strawberries. Some are in the freezer. Some went into 3 pies and the others topped some yummy pancakes and angel food cake. Of course, we did just eat some too.
We picked two flats full. When I say we I do use the term lightly. The thistles were out in full force so my helpers were a little less help in picking but helped make the transfer from small basket to flat for me. I was covered in juice as Sage thought it was fun to munch on the berries that had been picked and then come a give me bear hugs as I crouched in the thicket.
We were amusing to some I am sure.
