Strawberry Juice

Dom's excitement over bowl of sugared strawberries I just prepared sparked this memory:

Mom used to slice fresh strawberries into a bowl, sprinkle them with sugar, cover them tightly, and then store them in the refrigerator for several hours. Though my brother and I wanted to eat them right away, we knew it was best to be patient and wait for the time when Mom would give us the go-ahead. The very best part of the anticipated treat was the syrupy goodness at the bottom of the bowl!

I think it is kind of cool when I do the things for you kids that my mother used to do for me. :)

Love,
~Mama
