Strawberries are the angels of the earth, innocent and sweet with green leafy wings reaching heavenward. ~Terri Guillemets.
Strawberries are one of my favorite fruits and strawberry pie is not safe around me! My father used to raise strawberries when I was a child. My sisters and I would help pick them to sell. We probably ate more than we picked. My mother always kept a crock full of strawberries capped and sliced in the refrigerator. She would cover them with sugar and make like a sweet syrup. We thought a bowl of strawberries with cream was one of the best treats in this world.
