Please visit your local farmers market and support them.
Strawberries may be kept fresh in the refrigerator for three or more days, depending upon the initial quality of the berry. After a few days in storage,
however, the fruit looses its bright color and fresh flavor and tend to shrivel.
Did you know?
Always rinse strawberries with hulls on, so berries do not get water logged or lose any vitamin content.

First step – strudel dough. (You can use mixer, blender or your hands)
I use blender. Mix 1 cup of flour and 1/2 cup butter.
Add 1/2 cup sour cream (14%) and keep mixing it until all ingredients are blended together.

Step 2 – Stretch dough
Sprinkle wax paper lightly with flour and place dough in center.
With a floured rolling pin, roll out dough into a rectangular shape 12 x 9. Dough should be thin as tissue paper.
Step 3 – make cherry filling and sugar mixture (the recipe is below)
Step 4 – Fill the dough with fruit mixture
Sprinkle the dough with 1/4 cup of sugar mixture, add 2 cups cherries and top with the rest of sugar mixture.
Fold dough over half of cherry mixture and then fold other half. Seal the edges. (very important, all of them)
Cherry Filling:
2 cups cherries
Sugar Mixture
1 cup sugar
1/8 cup flour
1/8 cup cornstarch
Mix sugar, flour and cornstarch.

Here’s a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don’t worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don’t worry, be happy
Don’t worry, be happy now
Oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Don’t worry
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Be happy
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Don’t worry, be happy
Ain’t got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don’t worry, be happy
The landlord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don’t worry, be happy
Look at me, I’m happy
Oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Don’t worry
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Be happy

Don’t worry
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Be happy
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Don’t worry, be happy
Ain’t got no cash, ain’t got no style
Ain’t got no girl to make you smile
But don’t worry, be happy
‘Cause when you worry, your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don’t worry, be happy
Don’t worry, be happy now
Oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Don’t worry
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Be happy

In your life expect some trouble
When you worry you make it double

Oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Don’t worry
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Be happy
