| Entrance to the Strawberry Fields |
Yesterday was a gorgeous day in southern Maine especially for strawberry picking. Last week was the start of Strawberry Season in Maine and my sister, Connie and her husband Russ and I went to Fairwinds Farm in Bowdoinham for some red berries. It didn't take long before we picked about 8 lbs of strawberries each. At that point it was hard to stop because I kept finding some that were bigger than the ones I had already picked. Now I am ready for the 4th of July and desert will be Strawberry Shortcake!! Yum!

I might have to go back at the end of the week to pick some more to freeze for the winter. Can't have too many strawberries!!
What a great time we had.. Russ and I love strawberry picking as much as we love strawberry shortcake..We will go back...I tried a new shortcake recipe, but it was too dry. I'll try again..
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures of the strawberries! It isn't summer unless we have strawberries! YUM! Thanks for picking some for me!
