Strawberry News

I took a whole bushel of strawberries down to Maricela and Jan yesterday and I said, "okay, they'll be coming in at least a bushel or so a day now--even after u-pick--so we want to start featuring strawberry stuff big time."


"Strawberry shakes?" Jan said.


"Check."


"Strawberry pie?" Maricela asked.


"Check."


"Strawberry smoothies?" Jon Harmon asked.


"Check."


"Strawberry tarts," I continued. "Strawberry jam. Strawberry preserves. Strawberry shortcake. Strawberries dipped in chocolate. Strawberry pancakes. Strawberry Cheesecake. Strawberry Pizza. Strawberry Banana Soup. Strawberry Tiramisu. Strawberry Napoleon. Strawberry Buckle. Something new every day with farm-fresh strawberries."


Everyone seemed very excited. Jon even consumed a strawberry or three between each round of ideas.


"We can do this thing," I said.


Come on up and see if I'm right. I sense berry-related stuff in the public house this week.
