Strawberry Fields Forever

Strawberry shortcake, strawberries and ice cream, strawberry preserves, strawberry and rhubarb pie, chocolate dipped strawberries, and the list goes on and on! I love this time of the year!

If you haven't enjoyed strawberries this season, now is the time! The strawberries in our local grocery stores have been very nice lately, but there's something so special about having homegrown strawberries.

This weekend, a rich tradition continues in our community. I've been enjoying strawberries from the stands around town, but there's a day of berry picking and entertainment happening this Saturday at the annual Strawberry Festival at Mid America Teen Challenge.

It's a great way to enjoy some wonderful strawberries, and help out very worthy local cause. I found the details at www.semoevents.com and hope you'll be there! It's an editor's pick!

I leave you with a treat from the 1967 that 3,236,560 people have viewed to reminisce about Strawberry Fields Forever...enjoy!
