Cherries.

 After strawberries we have a cherry season, which I love as much as strawberry season. I preserved 40 jars of cherries plus 9 small jams.

Waffles.

 Strawberries are still here so I decided to make waffles with strawberries and maple syrup.

Cheesecake.

 I made a cheesecake with strawberries and jello and it looks really good but that is where it ends. The cheesecake is a cold one so there was no baking involved and it tastes good but its just not my thing, I like traditional baked cheesecakes.

Dinner.

 Continuing with strawberries, for dinner I made pierogi with strawberries topped with sour cream with sugar.

Strawberries.

 I love this time of the year, strawberry season is one of my favourite, right next to cherry season. I try to preserve as much as possible but also we enjoy fresh fruit a lot. This week I will show you all the yummy things I did last week with strawberries, first are jams. I make just few and keep them in the fridge  but I also make some freezer jams plus I freeze lots of strawberries for future smoothies and oatmeal.

 Everything is growing so fast now that we have warm weather. 

Raspberries.

 Jam season has started and the first fruit is raspberries. I made just few jars because I am the only person that likes it so that will be enough for me.
