When you buy a flat of strawberries...
All I wanted were some fresh, local strawberries, so we went to the Marysville Strawberry Festival on Saturday. Turns out there really aren't strawberries at the festival, which was surprising, but on the way out of town I spotted the Biringer Farm stand. Yay!
I was just going to buy a pint, but then I compared the cost and decided it may much more sense to purchase an entire flat. Hmm... OK
When you purchase a flat of strawberries (6 large pints) and you don't have plan for using them, you quickly develop one.
Of course there were plenty of these lovely red berries to enjoy right out of the box. They are perfectly ripe when you buy them. But, that's the thing they won't last as long as the over sized, often tasteless variety you purchase at the grocery store.
