I like brown sugar

 

We grow a few strawberries sometimes

[Crimson_Ayla]

Sometimes one of the dogs tries to eat them

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

we grow some but the wild ones are best, though too small to do antyhing with.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

my dogs used to love raspberries, like truly madly deeply. they'd go along the brambles nibbling them off. it was hyseterical. had to fight for enough to make jam. they left the chokecherries alone though.

[Crimson_Ayla]

I don't know of many wild strawberries around here

[Crimson_Ayla]

Lots of blackberries

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

i could go for some chokecherry jelly... but some blight wiped out all the trees about ten years ago

[Crimson_Ayla]

I love dogs

[Crimson_Ayla]

What are chokecherries?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

we have lots of blackberries, black raspberries, raspberries, blueberries, peaches, apples, crabapples... tons of stuff. you have to look relly carefully for the wild strawberries, first you see the tiny white flowers, in places where the grass grows thin, and then the teeny tiny berries, but they only last a few days.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

chokecherries are very sour cherries, kind of bitter almost, they can only be used in jelly, but they make the tartest, nicest, clearest, reddest, bestest jelly ever.

 

they call them that cause if you wat them out of hand they are a little.... chokey... but i like sour so i never had a problem with them.

 

but better for jelly.

[Crimson_Ayla]

That sounds like nice jelly. I don't really like cheap packet stuff.

[Crimson_Ayla]

I like ice cream

[Crimson_Ayla]

Spams because her battery's running out

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

.... we make our own jelly, but maybe you're thinking of what we call jello? i'm talking about jam but without fruit, strained and clear, spread on toastand such.

 

my favorite's hot pepper jelly. on cream cheese and crackers. yummmmmmm.

[Crimson_Ayla]

And the red isn't a very nice red

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

[Crimson_Ayla]

I like strawberry jam on toasted brown bread

[Crimson_Ayla]

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

[Crimson_Ayla]

Sleepy, but not sure if I could sleep yet
