Berry Picking


Today our little family went with our friends Bob and Liz to a farm north of town where we could pick berries. Ian has been wanting to try his hand at making jam, so we needed to get the berries for the jam. Evan came along and had a great time although he didn't actually pick any berries himself. We are now sitting at home with flats of berries trying to figure of how many things we can make using strawberries and raspberries. So far the menu is: jam, strawberry cake, and ice cream...and we still have plenty of berries left over.
