I made dewberry jelly last night

Cool....

Whats a dewberry? We aint got those in Vermilion Parish?

I strained the berries so the jelly is pretty much seedless, but it does have a light texture and a dark, rich color. It was my first foray into making jelly. I saved the strained berries to see how they do in a cobbler and I saved some extra syrup to see how it does in a cocktail.

I have pear and fig trees, too, for later.

A wild blackberry.

did ya bake a pie and put it in the winda' sill to cool, only to have it stolen by a lovable hobo?

that's old school cornbread. Do you have dewberries in your yard growing wild? does anyone actually grow these intentionally?

these are the ones that look like smaller blackberries but are sometimes raspberry colored as well?
