Summer pasttimes
Berry picking at the farm.
My Man fell asleep in the car by the time we got there but my Belle was raring to go and understood exactly to pick only the black ones as the red ones weren't ripe yet.
Our blackberry confiture is yumilous!
Maybe we'll start a confectionary soon :)
Babes in bath.
And mommy gets to relax whilst they shampoo each other now!
What a relief.

I can't believe you dressed her in white to pick berries. Hope it wasn't a prized outfit! What is a confiture?? Like a tart?
all her outfits are prized....I like white on my kids and black on me - kinda weird huh? but it's true. anyway, blackberry juice comes off easy so that wasn't a prob. we went today again just so g could pick too - and he got smeared ALL over by his sister. she's so naughty. she didn't want her own hands dirty so she cleaned them off him. she also picked ripe ones and squished them under her bare feet - coz they must feel kinda squishy and soft...and my dad like popped MANY into his mouth whilst 'picking'. oh, jam. we're making more jam tomorrow with the 9 pounds we picked today! did a blackberry short-cake this evening and only used up like 1 pound.
Can pls take photo of this confiture and the short cake? We need evidence of this startling domesticity. You are starting to sound like Laura Ingram's mother from Little House on the Prairie.
