Blackberries

Today, the kids and I went to go pick blackberries. It was a lot of fun but very humid, I'm pretty sure that I was melting. Anyway, Cooper had a little bit of a learning curve to go through before he figured out that the berries go into the box instead of his mouth. They don't like it when you eat the berries before you pay for them. We came home with almost three pounds of blackberries to eat and gobble up. Maybe I'll be creative and actually make something with them. Who knows!

Plus their cousins got to join in the fun and tastiness at the blackberry picking as well. I was really pleased to see everyone today and to notice that they all had such a wonderful time.

What a fun outing! Knowing how much the kids love fruit, I am sure Cooper wasn't the only one who ate the berries before paying for them. :)

Well if you only got home with three pounds it would be a waste of fresh fruit to make anything out of them. Since fruit is best fresh and raw, my rule is that you only make it into something else if it will go bad before you can eat it all ;-) Just saying...
