Ahhh, the beginning of June! Schools out, and the
pickin is grand! Strawberry pickin that is! I remember back in my younger days
that when school left out, we had a strawberry pickin day with mom. As long as
it wasn’t hot, I didn’t mind it, but if my upper lip started to sweat and my
shirt was stickin to me, I wanted to tell those little red bites of heaven
where to stick it. I loved eattin’ them though, and pickin was worth it with
everything my momma made out of these simple quarts of strawberries. Guys, it
was tough for me to just pick a few of my favorites for you! I’m gonna give you
my families old fashion strawberry shortcake that I grew up on that is so
simple you won’t believe it. I just had a lady at church come up and say to me
that she used my Shortcake recipe for a bunch of extra strawberries left that
she didn’t know what to do with, and enjoy it so much. The ingredients are
everything that should be handy right in your kitchen.

I then put a spin on Strawberry Shortcake by adding a
Kabob twist to it! Oh man do I love me some Kabobs!! The things you can put on
a stick to eat. Then, last but not least, my favorite beyond any other
strawberry recipe out there. Homemade Strawberry Jelly! Another delicious
favorite I grew up on! Loving it on my PB and J, toast in the mornin’, and
momma’s homemade biscuits. My cousin, Lindsay Clark, has been a big fan of
strawberry jelly too since our momma’s are sisters and we all grew up on this
stuff. I’ve given her a few each year of my jellies, but this year she wants me
to show her how to make it, and we are gonna go pick together. Nothin like
pickin, and an afternoon in the kitchen with your soul sister. My favorite
pickin spot is Green Barn Berry Farm in Muncy, and Berried Treasure in Linden.
Two great spots that are sure to have wonderful berries for you and your
family. Enjoy and good pickin!
