Good morning Kimbaby - mine isn't really a recipe - but I'll share anyway, maybe favorite way to eat strawberries are dipped in chocolate - there is a produce they sell here in the produce section called "Dolce" - microwave, dip, dry and eat:mrgreen: - yummy!
 
Wash strawberries, cut into halves, put in a dessert serving dish, sprinkle with sugar, add whisky(a tablespoonful per person) Leave in the fridge for a few hours, then top with whipped cream just before serving.
 
Boil straberris in water until soft, 5-10 min., with sugar (to taste), I like it sweet. Add a table spoon of lemon juice or a hlf of t'spoon of citrick acid. Turn of, cool in refrigerator, serve instead of soda/pop.
 
Slice and toast a couple of croissants. Slice strawberries and mix with sweetened whipped cream. Place strawberry mix into the toasted croissant. Take a cooled plate and drizzle with strawberry jam heated with a small amount of white wine, just enough to loosen. Place filled croissant onto the center of the plate and dollop with a small amount of the sweetened whipped cream and scatter the plate with slice strawberries.

Serve with a glass of nice white wine, drizzled with a little good vanilla extract and drop a clean whole strawberry into the glass.

Perfect! ; )
