welcome berries

My tastebuds are rejoicing: Strawberry season is in full swing! Amazing year 'round produce is probably the #1 perk of living in California. Seriously. It's unreal. Lately the strawberries around here have been extra succulent extra sun-kissed and extra dirt cheap. And they'll stay that way until fall. Last night Jeff & I completely indulged with our 2 pints of heavenly bright red and exactly ripe berries. Hanging in. Just the two of us. I cherish these rare quiet evenings.

Chocolate covered strawberries & whipped-cream topped daquiris. These are a few of my favorite things.We also celebrated the much-anticipated (for me anyway!) viewing of Juno. It completely lived up to the hype. It's darling. Ellen Page was perfect & I really loved Jennifer Garner. And I doubly love the fact that it takes place in good old Minnesota!! The only lame part about it was that I somehow missed seeing it in the theaters. Glad I'm officially up to speed with the world.
