May 28/Day 148 - Strawberry Picking

 We are lucky to get juicy, ripe strawberries throughout the year at farmer's markets here in Southern California. Some farms allow you to come in to the strawberry fields, pluck them straight from the strawberry plant and enjoy to your heart's content. You could also take them back home along with you. We had a great time at the strawberry patch during the weekend, plucking and eating strawberries!

May 27/Day 147 - Jamming time!

Spent the day making strawberry jam to replenish my jam stock. It was truly delicious :)

May 25/Day 145 - Spring produce from the market!

I could not resist buying this box of strawberries which were so fresh and juicy from our local farmer's market. I also bought four of these little plants to add to my little balcony garden. From the left clockwise, husk cherry tomatoes, thai chillies, japanese eggplant and thai basil.

Will post a picture of my little garden soon!

Here is what I made with these delicious strawberries.
