Raspberry Time

August is raspberry time in Missouri. We have a thick patch of ever-bearing raspberries in the perennial border at the back of our yard. We transplanted 4 plants from our Ferguson yard when we moved here in 2001, and we now have a thicket! We picked the first handful about a week ago and since then have been getting about a half cup a day, with more to come. They are great on cereal or ice cream. We'll freeze some for winter and if I find some more delicious Missouri peaches at the market, I'll put some in frozen peach pies as well.
