strawberry picking

I don't know how Thomas even got on the kick of wanting to go strawberry picking (he's never been), but all morning he asked me to take him. So this afternoon, the three of us went. It took less than 15 minutes to fill our bucket with perfectly red, deliciously sweet and fabulously large strawberries. We whipped up a shortcake (compliments of Martha Stewart) and enjoyed this yummy dessert after dinner. Mmmmmmm...

So did Thomas enjoy the actual picking of strawberries? He did! They are his favorite fruit and he knew exactly which ones to pick and which ones to leave alone. Meredith, on the other hand, picked one and spent the whole time smooshing it between her fingers (and then all over me!).
