As another strawberry season swiftly draws to a close, I thought I’d give this beloved fruit a sweet send off. Inspired by my favorite Jane Austen novel, Emma, an alfresco, high-tea picnic at Donwell Abbey captures the essence of these heart-shaped berries that carefully balance fanciful whimsy with delicate beauty. The epitome of elegance at ease, this repast will have you relishing the flavors and fleeting, balmy afternoons of spring.
