raspberry season

i love raspberries. i love the raspberry for it's practicality and simplicity - just wash it and you're done. no messy hulling, they last longer in the fridge than my other favourite, strawberries, and there's no back-breaking labour required when picking. same goes for the blueberry.

we took cole out to krause berry farm again yesterday to pick some raspberries. the season is getting on and the picking was a little thin, but i managed to fill a few small buckets while jamie and cole enjoyed the sandbox and whatnot. cole was again no stranger to berry picking - he nabbed a few low-hanging ones before we moved along to gawk at the goats (they were sleepy), pick up some veggies and of course a stop at the snack shack for strawberry shakes.

ps - homemade "huck finn" pants from heather ross' weekend sewing. can't resist making more baby pants - they're so easy.
