Went picking in the 4runner!!Raspberries!!

Score!!

 

Today’s haul....

 

We have a raspberry bush in our backyard.
It is harvesting now also.
Fresh raspberries are excellent.
We usually make a crisp or crumble with ours (the ones we don't eat!). What do you do with yours?
My wife will throw some in sangria sometimes also...

 

Hog them down. I did wash them this time and gave my wife a couple.

 

Damn they look good.

 

These are wild and planted by, you guessed it, deer!!!

 

Out here, we have huckleberries in early July, then blackberries now.

Went out and got a bunch of huckleberries a couple of weeks ago...





Bears love huckleberries, so I'm always packing my 10mm Glock. One patch had a bear in it that morning that left his mark on the trail...



The best part about huckleberry picking is that they are higher up in the mountains, so the views are amazing...

 

True Nirvana is mixing in some sugar, mashing them up, then pouring it over Tillamook Mountain Huckleberry ice cream...



After a month of keto, the sugar rush is like heroin, lol.

 

I know where a few blueberry bushes are. They are rare here. And everything is crispy and dormant now...

 

Yep. Only way they grow out here. They go for about $50 a gallon at the local farmer's market, but I like to get my own and then freeze them for later.

Was wanting to go blackberry picking yesterday, but my girlfriend was on call for work and we couldn't leave cell phone coverage.

All sorts of yummy things in the woods up here. I love to go out and find Morel mushrooms in the Spring, then bring them home, fry them in butter, or bread them and fry in coconut oil.
