it's hard to have any leftover for anything else. I was going to make scones but decided to make the Dutch Butter Cake I found HERE a while back. While this cake is more like shortbread, it doesn't need anything on top but that's what I do sometimes and I thought it would be good today. It's a lot like when people use sugar cookie as a crust and make a fruit pizza, but think strawberry shortcake.
I snacked on strawberries and whipped up some cream while the shortbread was in the oven. Once it was done, I couldn't wait. I probably only gave it 15 minutes to cool.
Yes, it was too warm for the cream but no worries, it didn't stay on the plate long.
So, 1.5 - 2 cups of strawberries down and a whole lot more to go. Maybe I'll get around to those scones in a couple of days. Or pie? Cake? Maybe try something new? Something with strawberries and green onion? Not really. But look at how these things are doing.
I'd say they're thriving. I never planted more but I guess it's not too late. With all the desserts I'm planning with the strawberries, it probably wouldn't hurt if I walked to the store right now and bought more green onion to plant. I won't really do that. How about I just get off my butt and clean? That sounds like a better idea.
