Strawberry Season

I won't try to give excuses for not being more regular with blog posting. I trust you'll believe me that it's just hard right now. Too much going on, on the verge of many changes.

But I just had to share this! 

We went to a farm to pick strawberries last weekend. Although we didn't pick as much as last year, we ended up doing a lot more with them. And look at all this delicious bounty we ended up with:


Ok, you don't think I'll leave you without some links to the recipes, do you? Nah, I wouldn't do that.

The jam is new for us, and I'm so glad we found it. I'd say it's like strawberry lemonade jam, but that maybe because I used a bit more lemons than the recipe called for. Oh and no need for pectin.

In the back you see some fresh strawberry lemonade. To die for. I used a regular blender and a strainer to get it a bit thinner.

Finally, there's that greek yogurt strawberry banana bread. Yum.

Have you started enjoying some summer fruit harvests? Do share!
