Blackberries Are In Season ~ Let's Celebrate!
There's nothing so luscious ~ for the eyes or the tongue ~ as fresh blackberries straight from the Farmers' Market!
I couldn't resist taking way more pictures than I needed because they were absolutely the most perfectly shaped and sensual blackberries I've ever seen! The aroma was so intoxicating I could almost eat them with my eyes!
So, here's to the Blackberry in all its glory!
What did I make with them? I made a Peach & Blackberry Galette, but it got eaten so fast that I didn't get pictures of it! You'll have to trust me on that one! Click here for the post on my Peaches & Cherries Fruit Galette and you can follow the same recipe substituting blackberries for the cherries!
My daughter made Blackberry & Raspberry Muffins too. Aren't they gorgeous? Can't you just smell them?
I was going to do more with them, I had all these Blackberry plans, but John ate the rest in one big handful, and then they were gone! THE BUM!
Those look so great - Can you ship me some as the ones in Mayberry do not look near as good as yours. The muffins I can smell them here ;)
