Strawberries

The grandson is a big fan of strawberries. At dinner tonight we had strawberry spinach salad. Yum! The grandson decided he preferred his strawberries straight from the package without all the embellishments.  He started saying straw-ber-ries over and over again as he ate them one by one. It was so funny the way he was saying it, with his tongue wiggling all over his face, so I decided to make a video of him. Of course, then he just started being silly, but I love the surprise ending of this little movie.


Last month when my sisters and I rendezvoused in San Diego for a week, the woman in charge of restocking our breakfast each morning at the motel was very friendly and told us she was going to Carlsbad to pick strawberries for her anniversary.  Since we were planning a trip to Carlsbad too, we decided that sounded like a fun adventure.  The daughter, the son-in-law and the grandson accompanied us to the strawberry fields.  We (read Kathy) paid a premium price for the berries and the experience, but it was fun.

Carlsbad Strawberry Fields - April 20, 2012




and we picked some very, very delicious strawberries that the grandson called pineapple about half the time.

He is so cute! I wonder if he realizes he's saying the wrong fruit name when he says pineapple, or if he's just being silly.

It was so much fun. I enjoyed the whole day! And yes, the pricey strawberries were delicious! For that matter the whole trip. can't wait for the next time.

is it sad that, although cute, the only thing i could think during that entire video was "oh man, i want some cheese boats." haha. but really, that little man is pretty silly and adorable! <3.

Your dad sure thought they were good to the last drip apparently. You should make you some. Easy peasy!
