I have strawberries growing in the garden. It is probably our third for forth year and this year we are doing well. The plants have already producing a good amount and it is exciting!
Usually I like to toss them in the freezer for smoothies but we also love delicious desserts from fresh fruit. I found this one from Dear Crissy that tried. It is really easy.
It had me at vanilla wafers. I bet I can make it with blueberries too when I harvest them.
