Strawberries for the winter

I love strawberries. Love them. I will love them even more in January when there is nothing fresh or local to be seen for miles. So tonight I took 3 quarts of strawberries and they went from here...

To here...

 To here.

I think there are two strawberries near the top of that package making a heart. Now that's a whole lot of love. I am working right now to make several of these packages to tide us through the winter. I do no more to them than wash, cut, and vacuum seal. The smoothies are going to be delicious this winter.
