The Perfect Summer Birthday

This past Saturday was my birthday, so to celebrate I thought what better way than to take advantage of the beautiful summer weather than go to the farmers market and strawberry picking. I had never gone before, but how cute does it sound to go strawberry picking with friends?
As I've talked about before, I love the Burlington farmers market. I tried a new stand and got a delicious breakfast wrap. After, I couldn't help but finish off the meal with maple cotton candy!

Afterwards, we headed to Sam Mazza's farm for strawberry picking! Most of us had never been before, so it was an adventure for all! We went out into the fields and were encouraged to pick and sample to our hearts desire!

When we got back, we cooled off in the room for a bit and then went to North Beach and to Ben and Jerrys (they give you a free scoop on your birthday!) to end the day. Quite perfect if you ask me!
