RASPBERRY SEASON!

If you have been reading my blog for any length of time, you may remember how excited I get when "my" raspberries are ripe.   (funny thing is I don't really like eating them.  But I do love raspberry flavor)  The first bowl of these red beauties came home with me the other day.  The reason I put quotes around the word my, is because I don't like to claim these sweeties as mine.  I didn't have anything to do with there being on my farm.  I think they are a wild variety.  My preference is to think of the raspberries as a gift from God.  Not asked for, we just happen to own the land they are growing on.  And they seem to become more plentiful each year.  So, I pick them.  And make delicious muffins, sauces, dressings, and syrups.  Yum!  Aren't they beautiful?

And, I took these pics of the rest of the farm bounty from the day.  The flowers were plenitful too, so I decided to bring some home.  The other picture is one days pickings from the zucchini fields.
