One of the very best things about Spring, though, is STRAWBERRIES!!!!
We love strawberries!
Some of the very best strawberries we've ever tasted come from an area near the Monterrey Bay in California. They are sweet, flavorful, juicy, and quite possibly the yummiest strawberries you'll ever taste! If you are ever driving through Watsonville, CA, then stop by a roadside stand and buy a basket... or a flat. Or if you are in Northern California, check out your local farmers market. We have gotten them from our local farmers market many times. Just ask where they are grown. And show up early- they sell out FAST!
You'll occasionally notice strawberries from Watsonville in stores, and while they are good, they just don't compare to the ones sold in the stands or the farmers markets.
My husband bought some strawberries from the store last week. They weren't from Watsonville. They were still good, though.
I'll share my Chocolate Dipped Strawberries recipe, and I would love it if you will link up your strawberry recipes, too!
