O, blackberry tart, with berries as big as your thumb, purple and black, and thick with juice, and a crust to endear them that will go to cream in your mouth, and both passing down with such a taste that will make you close your eyes and wish you might live forever in the wideness of that rich moment. --Richard Llewellyn, Welsh novelist (1907-1983)
So, who is coming over? Grin. I can't promise blackberry tart, but will blackberry cobbler do? Luke and I had a marvelous time gathering bowls full!
Love blackberries. Love Richard Llewellyn!
ReplyDeleteThe quote makes my mouth water! My great-Grandma had blackberries. She invariably suffered a gallbladder attack after eating the pies that she made, but she always said the suffering was worth it.
ReplyDeleteThose are gorgeous! I'm so jealous!!!
ReplyDeleteBlackberries are my single favorite food of all time. Unfortunately I am stuck with having to buy mine at a grocery store - paying way too much for something that tastes half as good as your homegrown ones!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
Oh, I loooove blackberries! I'll have to go picking soon and make some pie.
ReplyDeleteI am definitely there!
