Berry berry
A conversational counterpoint to the hilarious snippet that Loopy posted last week...*
Loopy: "All the raspberries at the edge of the yard are getting really ripe."
Me: "Those are blackberries, so no, they're not."
This reminds me of a conversation last year (?) with Dorotha:
Me: "We have to cut back the blackberries, they're creeping in from the woods and taking over the yard."
Dorotha: "But that would be a good thing."
Me: "Well, it would all just be nothing but blackberry."
Dorotha: "Yes. The whole world should be nothing but blackberry. All blackberry, all the time."
So Dorotha, do you really love blackberries that much or were you just being amusing?
*By the way, the ban on linking to my blog is now officially lifted. I feel I have gotten the hang of it and am worthy to be linked to. Do not disillusion me.
