Fresh Local Strawberries Are Here

As I was leaving work yesterday I saw that the fruit stand (run by Spina Farms) at the intersection of Bailey and Santa Teresa is open. You can check out my Google Map of it here. I stopped in to see what they were selling. Yesterday was their first day open and the only thing they were selling were strawberries. I talked to the lady that runs it for a few minutes and she told me that the strawberries are from Gilroy and they are grown along the highway between Gilroy and Hollister. So I bought a flat (about 6 small green containers worth) for $10 and took them home. I had a few before walking Wookie and they were really good. They made the strawberries I got from Costco a couple of weeks ago seem like they weren't real. Now I have to find something to do with all these great strawberries. Anyone have any good recipes?
