I love living in farm country.

Farmer's market Saturday mornings. Pick your own strawberries. Goooood, good stuff.

Fresh strawberries on my cereal. I picked those little babies right off the... vine? No. Plant, I guess. Yummy.

Salad greens. Roasted green beans. Early tomatoes. Yum, yum, and yum.

I took the bulk of the strawberries I picked here and made some strawberry rhubarb sauce. Meant to be put over ice cream, which we did, but I personally like to eat it right out of the bowl, like strawberry soup. I have still MORE strawberries and rhubarb waiting for me upstairs to be turned into even more sauce. Last batch I made, I thought I made too much and gave some away to a neighbor. I will not be repeating that mistake.

Later this week, when it gets a bit cooler, I'm going back for peas. And probably more strawberries.

Have I mentioned "yum"?
