We went to pick berries for FHE so we could make freezer jam. And you know what's cool? The berries were free!!
FREEEEE!!!!
I can't even tell you about the excitement I felt at the prospect of free* berries. And then we made loads of jam which is very tasty on toast. I ended up with nearly 2 litres of jam. Which should last me for at least a few weeks.
And it was all free**!!!
Artsy-fartsy shot of blackberries accumulating frost as they thaw after being taken out of the freezer.
*free minus cost of bandaids and neosporin to treat thorn scrapes, and emotional damage from having to run away when people who lived nearby released the hounds on us (even though the trail was public property).
**free minus cost of sugar and pectin to make the jam, and containers in which to freeze the jam.

heehee... this is another reason I miss Sweden: Laet summers/autumns picking blackberries. Summers picking raspberries and cherries and mini strawberries... All for free. :)
