There's something about pausing to pick a delicious fruit

Every year I hunt for blackberries because they are delicious and because I associate them with all sorts of nostalgia and hopefulness.  Every year I get motherfucking chiggers

Ahh... that reminds me. I have to go pick some too, but the only place they grow near here is behind the creepy housing development. Instead of poison ivy, I run the risk of scary old ladies yelling at me from their porches.

i'm not so keen on blackberries, i'm a raspberry kind of girl. at my old house in michigan we had a whole bunch of raspberry bushes on the side of our yard and in the summer we would pick them and they were soooo sweet. i once ate an entire bowl of them and then i got sick, but they were so good!

I see that your affinity for things both big and black extend beyond LL Cool J!(!?!) When is your next shindig?
