Oh fair berries of straw... how I love thee, with thine ruby skins and flesh so sweet. If only thou didn't upseteth my stomach so. Indeed, I think I may be allergic to strawberries. Granted, it's not bad enough to get me to stop eating them entirely, but maybe I won't go quite as straw-crazy in years to come. Sad. These strawberry blondies (har de har har) contain the last of our second batch of berries. While I still see them at the local markets and expect them to stick around for a little while longer at least, once you've paid $2 a pound it's hard to go back to $4 a pint. I'll gladly drive 40 minutes and spend an hour hunched over in the heat to save a few bucks. Call me cheap, but there's no beating the sweet taste of a berry that's still warm from the sun's rays. I personally love the combination of fruit and white chocolate. But don't worry, it's a subtle addition; even for folks who don't love white chocolate, these blondies come across as only subtly sweet and fabulously
