Strawberries Are Here!


I went last Friday out to the farm and picked up 3 flats of the most beautiful crimson red strawberries! There is something amazing about a fresh Louisiana strawberry, that the ones in the store don't even come close to! Their dark red color and sweetness are amazing. So I made 4 batches of freezer jam and froze a bag for smoothies later and still had a whole flat to munch on! I am in strawberry heaven! If any one wants to go get their own I get them from Hillcrest Blueberry Farms down in Dosoto Parish and they are going for $25 a flat and $15 a half flat and they are so worth it!
