ginny_t: for best results, store Ginny in a warm sunny place (Momiji secret)

Shall I weigh in as one of yesterday's berry pickers? Shall I take yet another opportunity to tease Roupen about insisting on picking a tonne of berries and then complaining about having to carry them all over Whittamore's half-acre?

Yep, strawberries. Yummmmm... Actually, strawberry picking is just an excuse to go visit the raspberry bushes and encourage them. (Which I did, complete with motivational speaking and encouraging hugs.)

And yes, I did leave a lot of strawberries in my row. But once Ginny's Elite Berry Program™ was completed, I did open up Ginnania to foreign interests.

So tired. So much jam.

And, because it's Monday morning, the milk curdled in my tea. #$&!@!!!

Oooh..fresh strawberries! How exciting! :)

I wouldn't mind some fresh jam but I don't have any free time until the 11th!

Booo! To much busy-ness!

According to their signs, raspberries will be ready on July 16. Raspberry jam is uber-yumminess.

Mm, berries. Lucky girl. Our black raspberries are starting to appear, but there's nothing like freshly-picked strawberries.

Boo on the curdled milk, though. XP

Hope you're having a good day! :)

They were warm from the sun. *melts*

Blackberries!!! I have envy. I think we have raspberries in our backyard jungle. I should check that out...

Ah, you did respond! Just not to my comment. ;D

I wish we had real blackberries! I think the red raspberries aren't in fruit yet, although they may just be too far back in the thicket to see...

So, uhm, do Raspberries grow well with inspirational speeches?

Well, it worked last year... And it makes me happy. :-D

I love berries, but have never gone picking. Must stop by the farm tomorrow to see if they have more strawberries. And snow peas.... they would go with tomorrow night's soup.
