This has three different kinds of berries, all from our yard. Blueberry, blackberry and raspberry. I put a touch of almond flavoring in it and it was delicious. Glad birthdays only come around 1 time per year.
On Saturday we ventured out of our usual routine. After our typical Saturday morning trip to the farmer's market we went to the shooting range. Patrick wants me to be more comfortable with the little handgun so we went and shot for an hour or so. He calls me dead-eye. We then headed to Concord where there is a Bass Pro Shop. as you know, we are not big "shoppers" so this was quite a day for us. We went to IKEA since it is nearby and then went out to dinner at Carabba's Italian Restaurant. It was a nice celebratory day. We got home around 8PM, just in time to pick a few blackberries and tomatoes.
When I was making the pie last night I was struck by the riot of colors these peppers are giving us. Slowly the peppers are all coming in. We only grow red peppers. We have 2 kinds planted this year; the big fat ones are wisconsin lake and the longer ones are paprika peppers- both sweet. We love stuffed peppers so what doesn't go in salad will end up stuffed in the freezer awaiting a "fast food" meal in the winter. It is amazing how quickly they change color. when I got up this morning all the peppers were completely red except the totally green one which now has red spots.
