It's time once again for the great seasonal strawberry harvest. We have had the first harvest now and the shelves in the pantry have been dusted-off and await the jam jars. To kick the season off, we traditionally have strawberry shortcake... And-a-one (clean and cut the cake and strawbs: And-a-two--pile 'em high and dry: Whipped cream in place...here we go!
Thanks JEWELL-- I really want to see your garden when it begins in earnest. Heh, heh, heh...Thanks EILEEN. It means a lot to hear that from you, JANE.
Oké GP--I shall make sure that your portion won't have any with whipped cream...I suppose that I shall have to man-up and take your whipped cream allocation onto my dessert.
@Sjoerd....my goodness that looks amazing!!! My favorite strawberry combo!!! STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE W/XTRA WHIP CREAM!!!! Funny, I didn't even plant one berry!! Well that means I have to pick a spot and get them ready for next year!! Enjoy!!! @Growingpains ... bit your tongue!!! LOL
What I like is Angel Food cake in a large bowl soaked in either Strawberry or Raspberry jello and the berries in the hole in the cake. Refrigerate until jello sets. Those who want Whipped cream may have it. I prefer mine without.
