Project 366 254/366

I did not have the children last week as I was on holiday, and thought while they were here we would go foraging for blackberry's, or brambles as Fifi calls them. Despite the rain they enjoyed themselves.

They want to make blackberry pie, but we will need a lot more than we collected today, but that was not a problem as we had only planned on making blackberry pancakes for tea.





I think Fifi's plan is to get mummy to take them "up the woods near the farm we lived on where we went when Bob was still in his pram"

Mummy think that is your plan for the weekend!!

  1. Our brambles are only just starting to ripen but the rain we had this afternoon, may have spoiled them. Some years you hardly get any.

  2. Great photo! There certainly are plenty of blackberries around at the moment. Blackberry pancakes what a great idea!

  6. I love picking blackberries with the kids. Apple and blackberry crumble is a real favourite family pudding!

  7. I had a friend take me to a tucked away raspberry patch once, trouble is, she was never home this summer and is now leaving. I will never find it again!

  9. I need to nip out with The Boy and go blackberry picking before they all disappear. Not sure what we'll do with them though as we both hate pippy berries. Bob and Fifi really look like they're concentrating hard there.
