    What a cool tip!! Thanks!
    I’ve been using my pairing knife from Pampered Chef but I think this will be more fun and my 10 y/o can help! sure hope they go on sale here soon. The farmer’s market has the best prices so far.


  4. That is a great tip. We will be growing strawberries in our garden this year, hopefully I will have a huge crop and I will need this tip!

    Cool! Our strawberry plants already have a few little berries, but I don’t think I have that kind of can opener! Maybe I can get one as a freebie sometime.

    Where were you two hours ago?? LOL – I just finished hulling a whole flat! :)


  9. This is a great idea — my husband hates when I hull strawberries by cutting the tops off. He says I waste half the berry. I’m going to give this a try!

    Sweet! My hubs LOVES strawberries…and I always end up slicing the top clean off, trying to get rid of the hull. Thanks!
