— a fun presentation

To make four delicious summer sandwiches, first wash and hull 4 cups of fresh strawberries. Slice half of them and mash the other half. Combine the sliced and mashed berries, reserving enough slices to garnish the tops of the sandwiches. Spread the berry mixture on a slice of bread, cover with another slice, add whipped cream or sweetened vanilla yogurt to the top and sides of the sandwich. Garnish with some sliced berries and eat! (hint: use some silverware for this).
