We went strawberry picking today, though it was a bit rainy and the pickings were slim, due to the fact that it was the end of the season, there hasn't been sun for all of June, and the field that we found open was pretty overrun with weeds. We still managed to eke out eight pounds of berries, then bought some more at a market down the road. Some of them went to jam, a good chunk went to a strawberry social we had, and some are just for eating.
