Mulberries

Ahhhh....a plump, warm, juicy mulberry picked fresh off the tree and popped into your mouth is a wonderful summer treat.

A few years ago I made a batch of mulberry jam. It was the best jam I've ever tasted. Unfortunately I also got a severe case of poison ivy while picking the berries.

The park near my home has a lot of big mulberry trees; they are so beautiful. Unfortunately, most of the lower branches were trimmed this spring and so much of the fruit remains just out of reach.
