Relative Something

Cyndie’s strawberry patch is now producing fruit and doing so in quantities that have her plotting endless ways to use them. It’s a good thing we have freezer space because we already have more strawberries than we can eat. Not that we aren’t doing our best to consume massive quantities while they are fresh.

On my birthday, Cyndie made me a special treat to rival my Dairy Queen favorite: a Frozen Hot Chocolate.

She created a frozen strawberry-flavored hot chocolate topped with a drizzle of her homemade hot fudge sauce. It was delectable.

Then she picked more berries.

Soon, there was a strawberry cream cheese pie to be taste-tested.

It passed my inspection.

Last week, Cyndie baked shortcake biscuits to sweeten me up with strawberry shortcake desserts.

It worked.

We are having a berry, berry delicious time finding creative ways to take advantage of the bounty of fresh home-grown strawberries.

Please pass the jam…
