I would say that hands-down, strawberries are my favorite fruit. And I think my kids would agree. I actually think they like them more than I do.
In our neck of the woods, strawberry season is mid-June and we look forward to picking our own strawberries every year around Father’s Day.
My kids will usually gobble up our haul in just a couple days. They like eating them with a little sugar sprinkled on top and this momma likes to enjoy a nice big bowl of strawberry shortcake after the kiddies are in bed.
Here are some pictures of all the kids (you’re welcome Mom), from oldest to youngest, on this year’s strawberry picking excursion – this year we went with grandpa and grandma (my in-laws), my sister-in-law, and my niece.
And once you get past all the cute pics, check out all of the strawberry recipes that I found on the web (and that I’m also drooling over).
