Autumn is on the way . Misty mornings and cooler days all showing the start of my favourite season.
So , do you know how to turn a couple of hours work into two more days work ?.....
It's easy , go fruit picking .
On Sunday we went picking blackberries. To be honest , we didn't even get half way to the place we were going to pick the berries before we had two cereal tubs full and decided to call it quits . There is an abundance of berries this year .
(Washing up bowl (new) full of blackberries).
On the way back , we went scrumping (ie. called at a friends to cadge some apples from their tree. It works , as they don't do anything with them , but in return we take some of the finished products back ) .
(Bag of apples)
And that is how you turn a couple of hours work into an extra two days worth ,lol .
Kids are now back in school and loving it thankfully , so hopefully I will now get some spare time to stitch . Shopping tonight , and got to clean out the little critters ( more info in another post ), possibly out tomorrow evening so still not much time ,lol. I swear the days are getting shorter . I must be getting old !
Thanks for dropping by ,

Oh Cath, the look of your pies and cakes and tarts just makes my mouth water. It's a lot of work but so rewarding.

All of your baking looks gorgeous.
I love blackberries! You are so lucky to have a place where you can pick so many : ) Your baked goods look wonderful!
Thank goodness the blackberries are amazing this year; my freezer is filled with crumbles..and more to do tomorrow. Are the blackberries cooked in your blackberry tarts??
Everything looks delicious!!
Wow! What wonderful baking! Yum!
WHY do I end up reading food related posts when I'm hungry??? You're killing me Cath. Look at all those yummy berries, not to mention the cooking...(smacking lips).
Yes, it is that time of year again. Feels like summer is done when the kids go back to school :(
Yummy, everything looks delicious! I've been doing exactly the same, although my blackberry bush didn't yield quite as much. Still, I've been having blackberries in my porridge every morning and I too made an apple and blackberry crumble - very tasty!
Best wishes.
Slurp....yum yum, they look very tasty.

Everything looks so yummy, especially those blackberries! I love all sorts of berries but we were so busy this summer that I didn't have enough time to do any pies, etc. Now that fall is here and the apples are out I'm going to make some apple crisps and applesauce bread. I didn't know you could freeze apple crisps or crumbles!
