The Best Part of Winter in Florida...

No, I don't mean the weather, which isn't half-bad. While you northerners are freezing your butts off, we Floridians are enjoying 70 degree temperatures and sunny skies. We are also enjoying fresh, delicious, juicy strawberries that come from Plant City, the winter strawberry capital of the world, which also happens to be located in the same county I reside. I just had my first taste of the season yesterday. It isn't quite the peak of the season yet, but they were still delicious and a gorgeous deep red. I see a lot of strawberry shakes, smoothies, pies, and of course shortcake in my near future.
