Strawberry Trick

There is some knitting news, but I don't want to talk about it. Because if I actually put in writing what I did with the gusset decreases, somebody will come over and take my knitting needles away. And I really need those needles to make some more knitting mistakes.

However, I will share my strawberry obsession and the trick I just learned. (Thanks, Lauren!)

First, you need strawberries--luscious, tasty, juicy, delicious strawberries



Then, take a straw--yes, a straw--insert it into the small end of the berry



and push it through. Off pops the leafy tip!



Repeat for all the strawberries. The larger ones may need an extra poke.

And soon you're left with strawberries with holes thru them, leafy tops and berry cores



Slice 'em up



and eat 'em.



I indulged in my once every strawberry season decadent treat--strawberries over chocolate ice cream!
