Me Thinks He Wants A Pie!


Wayne has been wishing for a cherry pie--now that the trees are full of them. I haven't been too enthused about the idea, and wasn't thinking about making one this week. He got home from work this afternoon and had the boys help pick them. When he even pitted them for me, I knew he REALLY wanted a pie! It really does look pretty good!

Too Good To Pass On!






We had to go back for more--strawberries, that is! The first day was such good picking. We headed out yesterday afternoon for more. Today is supposed to be rain all day and they won't be as good now. It took half an hour to pick 26 lbs.! We only picked about a six foot section of row! Now today's project is making strawberry and strawberry/rhubarb jam! Yummmm!

Strawberry Daze


We were asked to go pick strawberries today, but none of us could get real excited about it. When we called before going, the kids were hoping there wouldn't be any more! They were still available and actually the picking was great. It didn't take long at all to pick 25 lbs. When we were leaving the kids saw this sign and insisted on taking a picture--for Dad! (U-Pick--we picked ours!)
