ReplyDeleteI got a lot of blackberries 2 years ago and made jelly. We're still eating on that jelly! Blessinds, Marlene
ReplyDeleteThe blackberries look wonderful. I'd have had to pick twice as many as I needed to bottle/freeze as I'd keep eating them.
ReplyDeleteYour Beatle story had me laughing, and reminded me of even more Beatles songs than I had already remembered.
See you tomorrow!

Lucky you , I love blackberries ! Congrats on that great win too!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE blackberries - oh yum, and what a gorgeous collection of jars you've made! Congratulations on a fabulous win, Paulette!
ReplyDeleteOooh, yummo blackberries....we used to pick them as children, my grandmother made them into pies that were so good. They don't grow wild here like they used to though, as they have been declared 'noxious weeds' and aren't allowed to be grown.
ReplyDeleteNever picked blackberries before. I don't think they grow very much around here, either, just like the rhubarb. I don't even see it in the grocery stores or farmers market unless they are imported. Bet I would love them though!
ReplyDeletenice work on the blackberry jam!..hope you got the stains off your hands before you looked at your new 'package'!!
ReplyDeleteVery nice wins, lots of goodies and I love that fabric too. Those blackberries look yummy.

ReplyDeleteOoh, your jam looks yummy. I'm going to learn how to make jam, jelly, pickles and also do some canning, thanks to a quilt buddy of mine. I have always wanted to learn but didn't know anybody that did it, until now....Anyway, I'll post about my pickles soon. Then, I'll be doing jam too- I can't wait!
