Finally done!

Strawberry season official ended for me last week.  My hands are almost back to their normal color.  We shall not cry though, because we are prepared.  Picked over a 100 quarts of berries, made 5 gallons of syrup, froze 15 gallons, made 13 pints of jam, and some fruit leather.  Mmmm strawberries.  Honestly, I am so sick of them.  If I can get myself to eat one, I really enjoy it, but I sure don't like looking at them anymore.

There is but a short rest.  In just a few short weeks, blueberries will be available!  I think I may wear gloves for that one....
