17 Pounds

That's how many strawberries I picked. In about 45 minutes. With a friend (Hi, Lisa!) for company, but we each picked our own. She was talking about strawberry shortcake. I have other plans....

a raspberry tart:and 8 pints (that's 2 batches) of strawberry jam. And I've only made it a third of the way through the berries:
But I expect to make 2 or 3 batches of strawberry lemonade concentrate, and a batch of strawberry margarita jam. And maybe another pie. And I've already set aside a bunch for just eating:
