Every Sunday morning, Joe and I look forward to shopping at the Clement Street Farmer’s Market and these days, the intoxicating aroma of strawberries brings back some sweet childhood memories.
Growing up, my siblings and I used to visit our Lithuanian grandparents' farm. It was one of my favorite adventures—especially when strawberries were ripe for picking. I don't know what variety they grew, but they were bright red, tiny flavor bombs. We used to sneak out the strawberry patch and pop so many berries into our mouths that if any fruit wound up in our baskets, it was a wonder.
Fellow berry lovers, now that strawberry season is finally here, it's time to make the most of it! Whether you're harvesting from your garden, visiting a u-pick farm, or simply picking up a few baskets from the store, I thought you might like to try a few new recipes featuring our beloved berries. And hey, don’t miss the Must-be-21 Milkshake!!
Enjoy!
