Wisconsin peas and strawberries....95 cents to $1.05 a pound

It's pea season. Last weekend we drove to a farm near Clintonville, WI to pick peas and strawberries. (See the next post on the berries.) We went a little nuts and bought a whole flat of peas, which were gigantic and sweet, and two flats of berries, which were ripe as hell.





After the 4 hour drive home, we spent three hours processing fruits and vegetables. That night for supper, I made a lettuce salad with strawberries and a side of garlic sauteed beet tops. Jeremy made fresh pea risotto. How is it possible that we can eat so well???
