Blackberries
Remember those wild blackberries that Misha and I came across? Well, we went back for more this past Saturday. We picked a ton!!!! I think it was like 5 quarts total. The thing is, while we were picking berries in the middle of the woods....it starts raining. Very lightly, then stops. Great! It cooled off some....then it begins POURING. We are seriously standing there in the middle of the woods and are soaked to the bone. It was getting a little scary b/c we had to SPRINT for cover because there were a couple of power lines/poles near us. That combined with lightning is SCARY. Anyway, we didn't get struck by lightning and it was kinda cute b/c we were soaking wet, but standing together hugging each other in the middle of the woods in the pouring down rain. It was a moment. :-)

I'm so proud of ya'll. This is one of my favorite summer activities but it is so hard to find wild ones nowadays ;) Save some for me...
ReplyDeleteIt sure is! Plus you have to make sure that they haven't been sprayed. A lot of the blackberries (especially roadside) are sprayed with a chemical that will certainly make you sick even if you wash them well. Gotta be careful out there! :-) I'll try to remember to bring you some next week!
