Summer Goodies

Yellow plums, blackberries and red currants, all gathered from bushes and trees growing in parks and alleys in our neighbourhood.

Beautiful, aromatic, powder-coated plums, chosen one-by-one from the farmer's box. Their yellow flesh tastes like sunshine.

For a while we had a young woman from New Zealand coming by once a week with experimental baked goods. For $4, she would drop off a tupperware crammed with cookies, bars, brownies, cakes and scones of various flavours and types.

She took a week or two off and never started up again. It was great while it lasted. Like summer.

  1. That one photograph of the yellow plums, red currants and blackberries says it all. What amazing bounty lies just around our own corners. I think it's very cool that you shared something as simple but wonderful as that.
