The sweet tastes of summer

Well, more like the tart tastes of summer!
Look at those luscious blackberries growing in our cedar hedge. They are so sweet! Big fat things.
These are my first apples from my little tree - it has 16 apples on it and it is only 2 yrs old.
I gathered the fruit from my small (but productive) organic garden to make a fruit cobbler for dessert/dinner.
It turned out rather well I think.

Still haven't gotten (is that even a word?) around to any knitting this weekend. Unless you count 1 row of SS Socky III...I don't.

But I did clean the car, inside and out. It was becoming a mobile cause of humiliation.
Then I mostly played online mahjong and read blogs. I did get out for 2 walks today as well. I am trying to get active again. Slowly but surely. At least, that is what I am telling myself. ;-D

I am off to read A Confederacy of Dunces. It is my cousin Richard's favourite book. I have to say, I am on pg. 3 and have laughed out loud already. That is a great start!
