Hi my friends,

one of the best things of spring are also the Strawberries in the market - I love them over everything! O.k. maybe not everything - hubby is sweeter as they are....*smile*...

I'm going into the cooking business now and I'm posting now a delicious recipe for you -  you should give it a try and you'll not regret, I promise :)

Thanks for all the kind comments yesterday.
See you again, tomorrow or the next day. I have some projects going on, but I hope I can make time to post something.

See you!
Susanne

We grow really sweet strawberries up here in the U.P. too..but they won't be ripe here until around the 4th of July.
