Strawberry Picking 2014

One annual adventure is our trip to the strawberry patch. This tradition began in Massachusetts, was missed during our time in Korea, but resumed when we arrived in Germany in 2012. We love it. We returned to our favorite patch in Landstuhl yesterday. It was bloody hot, somewhere in the 80s. Gavin was not a fan, so Chris and I took turns tending to him while the other picked with the girls. We did well--4 quarts are frozen for shakes and 1 container is in the fridge waiting for some cake. Claire flat out asked when I was making the angel food cake, so I guess I best get that done!

Landstuhl Erdbeere Picking

One of our favorite things to do while living in Massachusetts was venturing out to pick our own strawberries and pumpkins. We couldn't have been more excited to learn of a few different erdbeere patches around our little village. They were the largest quantity of large sized berries I had ever seen--and mmmm so delicious!
