Blackberries….

walk 009

 

 

After doing my walk on Sunday and seeing all the blackberries ,today I had my son up at 10am, to come blackberry picking with me.

He would usually sleep till at least mid -day so was not best pleased but he came with out a moan.

So off we went on a mission to pick 4lb of blackberries for my jam making.

Came home an hour later with red stained,scratched hands and over 5lb of walk 010

blackberries.

Enough for my jam and a crumble for the boys as well.

Tomorrow I will go get the cooking apples and sugar then the jam making will begin.

    It’s a great year for blackberries, isn’t it? They’re really fat and juicy and loads of them.

    Enjoy your scones and jam!

    *sniff, sniff* I suppose you will put the wonderful jam over proper scones? and have tea? *sniff* I’m very food-homesick just now. Our cook used to make the blackberry jam and wonderful pies! The food here is wonderful, but nowhere can you get proper scones and tea – don’t even think about clotted creme! (sigh)

    Did you fix your computer troubles? Quite a lady you are, the computer-hiking-cooking-jam making-working woman! Well done!
