Ice cream melting over fresh apple pie. Fresh like hours ago these apples were still storing sunlight on a New York tree on a cool September day.

Gala apples warming in the sun…

Meanwhile, at the bottom of a nearby tree, somebody helps himself to the bounty before him…

Local Strawberries = Yum.

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

K hit the local farm for strawberries today.

I made shortcakes from scratch.

K cleaned and sliced the berries.

We both* made whipped cream from honest to goodness real heavy cream and sugar.

Fresh home made strawberry shortcake is THE yum.

MMmmm....  Shortcake.

* It took both of us to keep the whisk going at full speed long enough.
