Thursday I had a phone call, and it was my good friend Maggie. She wanted to see what we had planned for the morning, and if we wanted to come over for a bit. All of her kids were playing in the backyard, and she was busy picking strawberries. We headed over to help.
Boy was I glad to help. We picked strawberries for about an hour and a half, and I got to bring home a big bowl of fresh from the garden Strawberries.
Some of them were made into Strawberry Shortcake.
A few made their way into Strawberry Oatmeal muffins.
But James favorite was the Strawberry Cake! Too Good!
Some didn’t make it home to go into delicious recipes cause they went straight off the plant and into my tummy, oh so yummy. Thanks again to Maggie for all of the yummy garden goodies!
Yummy! I love strawberries…..they are my favorite berry. Your deserts look delicious 🙂
They look so good!
The strawberry cake does look extra yummy!
Looks like pure yumminess! Glad you got some good fresh ones and got to help pick too! What fun! Blessings!
Gotta love strawberries! Even better a friend that shares them!
Thanks Ellie! We love strawberries here too. I had a plan to start a strawberry patch this year, but I didn’t get it done. Oh well, maybe it will make its way into next year’s garden.
Thanks Nana! I’m glad that you liked the Strawberry Oatmeal Muffins, they are super easy to make 🙂 I’ll have to post the recipe sometime soon.
Thanks Mimi! The strawberry cake was so good, James loved it. I’ll have the recipe up soon 🙂
Thanks Marva! It was a lot of fun helping Maggie in the strawberry patch. I was thrilled when she said I could take home some berries too 🙂 I hope to get a strawberry patch in our garden next year!
Thanks Heather! I agree 🙂 I’ve promised Maggie some veggies from our garden if we get any this season 😉 The strawberries were so good!
