I think after the long, cold winter we had, we deserve a little treat from Mother Nature. That's right- strawberries. I've already spent countless hours peeling, chopping, and cooking down rhubarb from my mother-in-law's garden. Now it's time for that rhubarb to be paired with the sweet, tantalizing taste of strawberries. I've heard that they will be ripe for the picking around June 22.There are several places beyond the produce aisle to get these colorful berries for pretty cheap.
