blackberry girl

Dreamed a long dream that started out good. But I was woken up at 8am by a telemarketer, and again at 10am! Ack! I tried to fall back asleep but my dreams just got scary. So I got up and finished packing Hana's gift, then went running outside. Its been so perfect this week, 50-60F and brigth clear skies. Oh the joy of living in the South.

In my dream there were fresh strawberries in the grocery store, now I want them so much. Mmmmm fruit. Must go get fruit. Juicy berries.

The first memory I have of eating berries- I was visiting my great grandmother outside of Amarillo. She had a dish of incredibly ripe blackberries on the table. I was about 5 years old then I think. Grandma offered me sugar to put on them, but they tasted so good, so sweet and delicious that I didn't take any. The fruit fit in my little hands.
