I racked my brain and decided to make a watermelon fruit basket but when I went to the grocery store, I saw the most beautiful ruby red strawberries and changed my mind. I made chocolate dipped strawberries and they were so good. I know because my family sampled about a dozen last night...but don't tell anyone. :-) And guess what? No one else made chocolate strawberries. Woo-hoo!
Hannah has gotten into photography just like me. She volunteered to climb on top of the kitchen island to take this picture. I set the white balance and exposure for her and this is what she shot:
I use to think chocolate dipped strawberries were hard to make until I found this little secret:
Have you heard of Frutta? It makes chocolate dipped strawberries totally easy! All you do is take off the lid and the plastic, stick it in the microwave for about a minute and a half at 50% power, and then dip your strawberries. The chocolate is delicious....I could bathe in it....that good! Yum! I found mine at my local Albertsons but I've seen it at HEB and Walmart too. If you click on the Futta picture it takes you to their website.
So, I'm off to eat my weight in strawberries...just kidding, I'll be good and share with the rest of the faculty.
Ya'll have a blessed day!

Great idea! We've had yummy strawberries lately at HEB. Caleb loves them for a snack.
Thanks for the reminder today for Secretary's day. I am going to drop something off for our school secretary's. I know they do a lot of work!
