For the Food on Fridays carnival, any post remotely related to food is welcome—though we love to try new dishes, your post doesn’t have to be a recipe. We’re pretty relaxed over here, and stories and photos are as welcome as menus and recipes. When your Food on Fridays contribution is ready, just grab the button to include with your post. It ties us together visually. Then fill in the boxes of this linky tool to join the fun!

Food on Fridays with Ann
Strawberries, hand-picked and shared. With us.
Who invests all that time and energy into planting, growing, tending a strawberry patch, then picking a huge container full and giving it away?
A true friend.

Yum and these are the best kind, medium and so sweet. What a lovely friend you have!
Hazel, you’re so right–the big ones are not reliable (sometimes sweet, sometimes not). And the little ones are sometimes too little and squishy. These were like Baby Bear’s: juuuuust right.
Hi Ann, those strawberries look yummy! Love buying them fresh from the farm stands in California–a long time ago. Wanted to let you know that the first link to cinnamon rolls will not link to my post. That’s why I put in a second one. Trying this from my iPad. Too hard!
Our Midwestern grocery stores truck in your big luscious California strawberries, but as I just mentioned to Hazel, sometimes they aren’t sweet. I wonder if it’s because they’ve been hauled across the country?
I tried to do something on WordPress with an app. You’re right–sometimes what’s supposed to be easy ends up too hard!
Ann, I think the strawberries are not sweet because they are picked too early like a lot of other fruit. It takes time to truck them to their destination. Living in AZ now, I really miss those strawberry stands. When I buy strawberries at the market, I do wait until the California ones are available. Being close to the border, we get early strawberries, like in April, and they are from Mexico.
Thanks for taking care of my mistake.
Janis
A true friend indeed.
P.S. My mouth is watering just looking at those pictures.
