A Berry Picking Day

My friend Dennis has a fantastic garden with lots of berry bushes. Every year when he's tired of picking, he invites me over to take as many as I want. This morning I got the call. I think I ate as many berries as I picked. I'm taking some to my French class tonight; I froze some; and I still have lots to eat in the next few days.

I have purple fingers, and it was worth it.

Dennis usually gives me cherries as well, but this year the west coast of the U.S. has been hit with an invasive fruit fly that has pretty much ruined his cherry crop and driven up the price of cherries everywhere.
