Blacks and Blues

As another alternative to attending the Eno Festival, we decided to go on a berry picking adventure over the weekend. This time, we took along some friends to introduce them to the glory of picking blackberries and blueberries and ice cream all at the same place! It was a hot day but we had a lovely time picking and playing and eating. (We definitely recommend Vollmer Farm for an outing - just beware that the price/lb for the U-pick berries is pretty high. ) We only picked a few blueberries because we'd picked at a different farm a couple days earlier, but we did pick a bunch of blackberries so we could make jam. And we made a delicious black and blue cobbler the next day!
