Gary grew up somewhat in Oregon and talks non-stop about the blackberries. But our Tejas neighborhood gets blackberries this time of year -not Oregon berries- but nonetheless fun to pick with Miss L and then make something out of. We went picking out at the soccer fields and nearly got eaten alive by mosquitoes despite the bug spray last night, and then our FHE treat tonight was cobbler, and it was delicious.
I think I may have to go back to park and get some more for jam. We'll see.
