no weeds here, ma'am

Lately in the afternoons, the kids collect wildflowers for their self-styled flower shop. They carefully pick them, trim them, gather the stems, and wrap a little tape around them. In order to acquire a bouquet from the shop, you must offer flowers of your own.


It's hard work gathering all those flowers. Time to take a break ~


~ maybe sit in a rusty chair


~ and think about blackberry jam

I need a blackberry jam thinking chair! One more reason to have kids: wildflower picking helpers. Love the photos.

Mmm, blackberry jam. Like the flower shop, I've been doing some of that myself.

Hey Heather K ~ Indeed, everyone needs a jam chair!

Hi TCE ~ I can't wait until the berries appear. My sister-in-law taught me how to make jam last year and we ate it all summer long. Mmmmmmm.
