I love strawberries!

For me, they are dessert. The natural sweetness, the bright red, the little-speck seeds: everything about strawberries is perfect.

Despite the wintery season and the correspondingly high prices, I found some strawberries at the supermarket and had to indulge: it was my birthday, after all. I chopped them up, sprinkled some sugar on them, and the next night, a simple strawberry syrup was ready to top my chocolate birthday cake.

It was perfect!
