I’ve had a huge craving for lemonade recently and this weekend I took advantage of cheap strawberries and made a strawberry lemonade slushie. Quite possibly my new favorite drink!
We drove past Gibbs U-Pick farm this weekend and it brought back lots of memories. When I was little we would go to this farm to pick our strawberries with Aunt Sandy. She had a hat and enthusiasm which are both required elements in strawberry picking. I felt like a proper farmer as I walked through the rows and picked strawberries to toss in the boxes. I tried very hard not to eat any strawberries while I was picking them…but I’m sure I failed. Fresh strawberries just taste too good and I have very little self control.
We didn’t go picking this weekend because I find grocery shopping much easier nowadays. But I do sort of miss my days ‘farming’ with my family and coming home with a big box full of delicious strawberries.
