We haven't really been out and about this week yet but now I know they are starting to ripen I think I will have to make sure I have a bag in my bag for just in case we spot any. I haven't picked blackberries since I was a child. We lived in a village where there were lots of fields and woodland nearby and I will always remember going to collect them. Lots of prickles, lots of scratches but lots of fun. My mum used to make a small mountain of jam with our pickings not to mention all the crumbles and pies. I want my kids to make a memory for themselves of similar things so I am on the lookout. Maybe even strawberry picking too.

A few years back we went on a ramble with our church and picked some. I was most surprised that evening when the door bell went and a apple and blackberry crumble arrived complete with custard. OOOOOOO i CAN TASTE IT NOW. Have a good week. XXX Don
