Oatmeal and Garden-Fresh Berries for Breakfast!

Hot Steamy Oatmeal with Garden-Fresh Berries

It's a cool 65 degrees here this morning and a light rain is falling.  This weather makes it a perfect morning for a breakfast of hot, steaming oatmeal and garden-fresh raspberries and blackberries.  Delicious!

We are so lucky to be getting these golden raspberries and there are many more coming on.  I can hardly believe that these plants were mere sticks when planted this spring.

Berries, fresh from the vine, are so much more yummy than those available in the stores.

Thinking about growing a few berries in your backyard?  Do it!

Our First Blackberries

First Blackberries of the 2013 Season

There is nothing like walking to the garden and picking your breakfast.

I've been eyeing the berry bushes for some time now as they are loaded with ripening berries.  This morning we were finally able to pick a ripe, deliciously juicy handful.  They only lasted a moment.

Yum!
