{Raspberries}

Clocking out of work it hit me like a double whammy.... ITS FRiDAY. Yipee!! I did a jump, skip and even a heel click :) I knew it was Friday but Baby, IT'S FRIDAY. Best part is that I have tomorrow off! I've got BIG plans for Saturday. A day in Provo. Ha. Just goes to show how often I travel south of work in Orem. It's going to be phenomenal.


Anyways... After clocking out, Mom and I went to pick the raspberries over in Grandpa's lovely berry patch. Sunshine, perfect company, and a bucket to fill with all the GORGEOUS ripe berries. I have to say picking with my momma beats picking alone. Plus we walked away with some serious loot. It took us over an hour to pick. And we loved every minute of it .... Minus the tiny little thorns that I kept pulling out of my finger tips.

I took my basket home, along with more corn for freezing, my coral star peaches and salsa makings for canning. It's going to be a busy weekend in the kitchen putting everything up. I really love it though.
Best part of the night -- tucking away 16 CUPS of raspberries in the freezer. 16 cups people, that's a lot. :) my mouth waters at the thought of them. Mmmmm
