We girls went berry picking at Larriland Farm in Woodbine, Maryland this morning. It was quite a ways north of where we live, but well worth the drive. 
After Julia and Evelyn were each given a small basket, we all headed off into the strawberry patch. Julia didn't know quite what to think of the whole situation, so she mostly looked around for the first 10-15 minutes.
Evelyn, on the other hand, knew exactly what to do, and she dove right in. She did an excellent job of choosing ripe, red strawberries. After filling up her little basket, she would dump her berry collection into my cardboard box.
Julia had a different system. She "picked" the strawberries out of my box and then put them into her basket. Silly girl!
Overall, we had a great time berry picking. The weather was absolutely beautiful, and we came home with enough strawberries for two or three different desserts. Who's ready for apple-strawberry pie?
