Welp….as many of you know, I’m not a huge “baker” but there is something about the crostata that just has a grip on me. I wonder if it is the rustic overall look of a crostata….or the maybe  it’s the perfectly imperfect shape of all of my crostatas? I don’t have the answer as to why my heart belongs to the crostata (because I’m Italian?) But anywhooo…..this one is to die for and I cannot wait to hear what you all think of this strawberry beauty.

Side note: The pie server in the photo is the one my mum gave me for our wedding 30 years ago….I heart it a lot;)

Another side note: Keep your mint and parsley in mason jars full of water like in the photo. They last longer that way and they are soooo pretty;)
