Summer ended last week. The calendar said so.But here it is nearly October and look what’s still growing fat on the vine.

October! These suckers should be shriveled up and long gone by now. Or filling up bear bellies. Just look at ’em.

blackberries in hand

LOOK AT THEM!!! Fat and juicy and about as sweet as they come. Here I am picking my breakfast. Note to Mr. Spouse: Some of us happen to LIKE blackberries. Some of us do NOT think they’re invasive pests!

blackberry rinse

A little rinse, just because…because it makes a good photo. I mean, look at that water. Wasn’t easy doing it one handed. Note to fans of The Office, especially Miss Daughter : No, I’m NOT going to say “That’s what she said.”

blackberries and yoghurt

Add some yoghurt and there it is–a bowl full of summer. Mmmmmm…better enjoy it while I can, weather’s supposed to change next week.
