My fi rst clue was when I saw that Laura at Eden Valley Farm was looking for pick- ers. Yikes! That means it’s time to take inventory of leftover freezer jam, buy some berries, mix up some smoothies and do a little baking. Nothing can beat fresh Oregon strawberries. Fresh, huge, perfectly formed out-of-state strawberries are available all year long at local super markets but there’s just no taste comparison to Oregon grown berries. They aren’t big or perfectly formed and don’t last very long but they are red, sweet, juicy and taste like….strawber- ries! It’s our wonderful Oregon weather that makes the difference. We have the best growing conditions for sweet, juicy berries. That means lots of rain, cool nights and (hopefully) warm, sunny days. It allows the berries to stay on the vines longer and the sugar to develop before the berries are harvested. It also means that their shelf life is short so we need to get them while we can. We have already had our fi rst strawberry shortcake of the season, a couple of smoothies and now I’m look- ing forward to stocking up on freezer jam. In between preparing batches of jam, I’m going to treat family and friends to some simple Strawberry Cheese Tarts for a quick dessert and some Strawberry Nut Bread at coffee break time. Enjoy!

Rob formed his fi rst garage band in 1966 as a 12- year-old, and continued with the same bandmates until early 1969. If it was played on top 40 radio, Rob heard it. His love for 50s and 60s music continues today and he loves keeping the music of the 50s and 60s alive, especially songs that should have been heard, but weren’t.
