The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

I just looked at a bag of M&Ms in the gas station. $3.65 for a freeking bag!

I wasn't going to buy any, and after looking at the price I absolutely wasn't going to buy any!

As we were on the subject of blackberries this morning... the blackberry cobbler the wife made this evening turned out amazing. Best she's ever made!

No, I'm not sharing this batch. And, no I'm not sorry! 😆

Time to wind down for the night. Good night everyone.
Looks yummy!

Good night, DKA! 🥰🥰
 
There are wild blackberries everywhere around here. I had a small farmhouse on a couple of acres when I first moved to WA. There were TONS of blackberry bushes on my property. I never did anything with them until I met my husband. He picked some and, OMG!, they were sweet! After that, I started picking with a vengeance! Armed with a long sleeved shirt, heavy gloves, boots, and loppers, I would pick what I could reach, then lop off the canes to get further in.
I haven't been blackberry picking in decades. Dad used to take large coffee cans and screw metal strapping to them to make a hook that you could slip onto your belt. This made the cans hands-free. With two cans hooked to the front of our waste, we would wade into thickets and pick berrys till our fingers were dripping juice. Then it was time for blackberry cobbler.

We get wild raspberries here. They’re actually considered an invasive here. But yeah - in July, I’m picking at them.
