Food Makes Everything Better

My boss just called about tomorrow. Apparently the place we're going to work has a lot a lot a lot of blackberry bushes that we're going to rip out. There are ripe blackberries on them. He said, 'just between you and I, bring some buckets, they won't be home.'

You may think this is unethical. I don't. Funny how working for people with more money than god makes you feel okay picking blackberries during work hours.

Also: blackberries!

Further, I stewed down some of the purple plums from my backyard and they are unreal wonderful. Angus is in love. They have turned this rich crimson colour. There are lots more which I'm gonna try to get with Mel Thursday I think. If we climb onto the shed roof we should be able to reach.

Looking forward to chatting with a woman who works with her hands and isn't my co-worker too.

Oooh, I was thinking about trying to make one of these:

Maybe I should step up the process!

Not unethical at all. Working in construction, or asking for the garbage from construction sites results in receiving some awesome items to fix up and use. Counter tops, windows, etc...
