Pick 'Em and Chuck Em'

This afternoon, Aaron and I went strawberry picking with Grandma and Grandpa Orahood! Aaron seemed to enjoy himself and actually picked a few of his own...he just didn't understand the idea of putting them gently into the box but instead, he would throw them! When that got boring, he proceeded to pluck already-picked strawberries out of the box and chuck them back into the plants! We managed to find most of them, but I'm sure there were a few escapees. He spent his time wandering the rows and quite frequently plopped down right on top of them! His shorts show the evidence with a few tell-tale pink stains! When we first arrived to the farm, however, he was extremely excited by this, 95 pounds riding shotgun!

What a fun way to spend a warm day! Anybody want some strawberries? If you have any great recipes, please pass them on...we have an overabundance!
