Strawberries Galore

On Saturday the boys and I went strawberry picking at Whittaker's Berry Farm. The berries were incredibly plentiful, thank goodness, because I think the boys put more in their mouths than in our box. The type that we picked, Honeoye, doesn't have a very long shelf-life, so after we got home, I spent the rest of the day making strawberry bread, strawberry-rhubarb buckle, strawberry shortcake, strawberry jam, and prepping the leftover berries to freeze. If I hadn't been so worried about the berries completely deteriorating before my eyes, I may have taken pictures of the goodies I made. As it was, the were literally getting squishier by the hour so instead I'll just share pictures of the berry-picking fun.
