To measure the goodness of life

To measure the goodness of life by its delights and pleasures and safety is to apply a false standard. The abundant life does not consist of a glut of luxury. It does not make itself content with commercially produced pleasure, the nightclub idea of what is a good time, mistaking it for joy and happiness. On the contrary, obedience to law, respect for others, mastery of self, joy in service--these constitute the abundant life.
Thomas S. Monson, "In Quest of the Abundant Life", Ensign, Mar. 1988, 2

Lowest Price on Strawberries!


April 11 -- $4.99 for 4lbs. of strawberries at Lee's.
You can make easy freezer jam, old-school jam, top 'n slice to freeze, and enjoy their bounty on all your favorite breakfast bake goods and Easter desserts. Enjoy! (and head over fast)

How to Freeze Store Strawberries:
1. Discard any discolored/old berries.
2. Rinse in cold water.

3. Top berries (remove stem)
4. Slice. Note:you can freeze whole, it's just that they take a long time to thaw and any berry thawed will not be as firm as fresh, so you rarely used them whole if you freeze them. Besides, have you tried to cut a thawed berry? No bueno.)
5. Store in an airtight container, like a zip-lock bag, and be sure to date it! Berries can last up to 2 years.
TIP: When you freeze them, be sure to lay them flat; they'll thaw faster and make it easier to stack or stand up for max. freezer space and organization.

Enjoy those strawberry rhubarb pies next January!
