Entry for August 12, 2007

For those of you that have read this page for a while, that means more than a week or two, you know I have a blackberry bush on the side of my house. At the begining of summer, as it starts to get warm, they start to blossom, then produce fruit. I run out and try to pick them before the birds can get to them. I usually only get them for two weeks. I get about two gallon freezer bags of berries. Then I have to make the decision, pies or Jelly. All I really have to do is check the supply of jelly to make the decision. This year, its pies, well, pastries. John picked up some Pepperidge farms pastry shells and so I made pastries. I only made two to start with, to make sure it work. they turned out pretty good, and i didnt mind not making the crust myself. I did taste the filling, adn I think I will be doing this again. Yum, blackberry pastry tarts, withoutr having to work too hard. I even thought to put parchment paper on my cookie sheet, so no mess. After all these years, Im finally learning to use the stuff that makes your life easier. that is another blog.

Ok, so I am gonna hit Post, and start my day. John went to get blueberries for the waffles, and its time to eat. Pour me mimosa, its Sunday.
