The boys and I went raspberry picking today at West Union Gardens. There was not a ton of berries but we still had a good time. The boys loved the chickens, roosters, turkeys and goat that were roaming around.
Ben got bored after a while and started putting the bucket on his head, throwing rocks and trying to cause trouble. He picked for about 20 min and was done - not bad for a 3 year old. He kept asking "where can I find another clean and shiny one?" I think he was referring to ripe berries... but kept calling them shiny and sparkly.
Tonight I made a triple batch of raspberry jam - it turned out great. I think tomorrow I will either make a pie or raspberry breakfast bars... can't let those berries go to waste!
