Blackberry picking and LEGO pizza

Had a massive, monster blackberry picking session yesterday, down by the canal. And the day before too, near a quarry. I have five boxes in the freezer and am anticipating a winter of crumble followed by a spring of cake and a summer of smoothies. That's how it worked out this year anyway!

I washed each one under the tap and found spiders, little worms and many flies. All gone now. I also found two thorns in my thumb today, both were removed with a sterile needle.

 

 

 

 

Other news - did you know that they make LEGO pizza? I have so so much to tell you. I can't believe this made it to the top of the list. It's just because my brain goes fuzzy after work.

While we're talking about food, the second series of The Great British Bake Off has started. Last year it was my telly highlight. It's sublime viewing - funny, sad, educational and nutritious. Next week it's biscuits. I am totally excited to the point of distraction. I have to go now ...

My LEGO people don't have pizza - they're still eating square pancakes baked in a round pan. (A LEGO speciality they tell me.)

Our brambles aren't really ripe yet but I've got a few wild plums. The best way to clean brambles I find is to rinse under the tap in a seive then put in baking trays one bramble deep. Then watch and the little white worms crawl out and can be picked off.
