Strawberries and Roses

Our strawberries have exploded unlike any other year. This week I have picked a total of 14 cups of strawberries. 4 cups on Tuesday, that Peter made sorbet with, 4 more cups on Thursday more sorbet.....
and 6 cups today which I made into freezer jam. YUM!!
I am going to make bread tomorrow, because there is
nothing better than homemade jam and bread.

And these are some roses from my yard. I was pruning my last standing rose bush and I saved some of the prettier ones for this arrangement. I love having fresh flowers in my house it makes me happy. And these make all the more happier, because they cam from my yard.

So I am happy girl today because of Strawberries and Roses.

Fresh strawberries...yum! Good call on the fresh bread and jam too. I just made jam a few days ago...now you're making me feel the urge to bake up some more bread too!
