Four Quarts Of Pure Bliss::

 Today we got our first homegrown strawberries of the season. Well, not grown at our home but you know what I mean, not store-bought. Not those huge, crazy, amped-up-on-chemicals strawberries. Perfect, normal-size strawberries that smell as good as they taste. Just ask Miss Charlotte, she ate too many and wasn't hungry for her supper. But that's okay, they were that good.

And my supper? Well, a smoothie of course. Here's how we made ours but I never really measure anything,  so this is all an approximation. The banana was left over from the kids' supper so I threw it in.

1 Cup of vanilla yogurt

1 1/2 Cups strawberries

lots if ice

1/2 a banana

tablespoon of honey

Delicious. Four quarts of pure bliss. I'm also thinking about....strawberry pie, quick strawberry jam, strawberry shortcake......mmmmmmm. Tell me your favorite things to make with strawberries. Favorite recipes? I'd love to hear them. Now I'm daydreaming of making this smoothie mixture and making them into popsicles. That would be really good.

                                                                             
Other good things about TODAY:
Wyatt's grandpa took him fishing this morning and to McDonald's for lunch. no fish caught but he had a great time.
lots of playing/swimming/fighting in the pool
a small dent was made in the laundry that has been piling up mysteriously
perfect sunny day but not so hot, got to turn the a/c off for the day
kid's fighting was kept at "manageable" today as opposed to "out of control", that will be tomorrow.


Happy Thursday, Y'all.
