Well my bad sore throat on Monday ended up turning into a wicked case of Strep Throat by Tuesday so I must admit that I have been rotting away in bed all week writhing in pain. Strep just plain stinks I haven't had it in years - ugh. But thank goodness for antibiotics and narcotics and sweet husbands and MIL's too to save the day! I am hoping that I am headed in the right direction to feel much better for the weekend and praying that nobody else comes down with it.
These photos were taken last Saturday at a little spot just down the street from our house. A blackberry goldmine, we were in heaven picking until our fingers and lips and clothes were all stained the deepest purple. I just love blackberries they are quintessential summer and we have plans to make a return appearance for more before it's over!
So if you come back tomorrow I hope to have enough energy to share this yummy recipe for the blackberry cobblers we made in tiny mason jars with our bounty - but for now I am sticking to cold popsicles and water and resting when I can...here's to a healthy and wonderful Thursday for you whatever you are up to!
