| I don't know if they're blackberries or black raspberries or what, but they're everywhere and we picked the first ripe ones yesterday evening. I molested them a bit with a whisk, then stirred in some sugar and put in frige. After dinner we had ice cream covered with the macerated berries. Mmmmm! If you can't fight 'em, eat 'em! |

| Blackberries. Was down visiting family in Wetumpka 16-18 Apr. BIL said they'd already picked a couple gallons of blackberries. Heck, mine up here in the frigid northland were just blooming about then. Don't know that I ever saw a raspberry, in the wild, in central AL when I was growing up roaming the fields and woods there. |
