Berry Beautiful




One of Heavenly Father's gifts to us is fruit in its season. My favorite are the succulent bright green of the kiwi, the mandarine and the pomegranate in winter, and the nectarine, watermelon and especially the blackberry of summer. The stained little lips of neices, nephews, grandchilren and children while picking the summer black berry must be our thank you back to Heavenly Father. Yesterday we spent the day picking at a friend's berry farm. It is a family tradition that we have done for years. What does not make it into the mouth's of our little ones while picking gets brought home. At home we make Berry Freezer Jam, and Berry Crisps. The rest gets frozen so that we can enjoy their sweetness all year a-top our cereals, in shakes and in my favorite Whole Grain Black Berry Muffins!!
