Day Forty-Six: Strawberries!

I love strawberries, big, fat, red, and sweet. I love them in ice cream, in milk shakes, on cheesecake, and smothered with Cool Whip on top of a slice of pound cake. I like them just straight out of the carton, too. I like that they are healthy for me so that I can balance out the not-so-good for me things that I partner with them more often than not. :)

Today was the first time in 2011 that we were able to have fresh strawberries. We made strawberry shortcake. Yum!

What is your favorite seasonal food? For my youngest daughter the answer is pumpkin pie. What do you spend all year craving and planning for?

46. I am thankful for strawberries (and don’t tell anybody, but I’m partial to shrimp, too!). I am thankful for time with family and beautiful springtime weather. I am thankful for the ability and health to be able to get back out into the world again to enjoy the beauty that Heavenly Father has provided.
