Hedgerow harvest

Up early on Sunday morning and up the hill to pick brambles. It was blowing an absolute hooly so we were left with very red cheeks not to mention very purple, sticky fingers from all the fruit picking.

A good haul with plenty left on the bushes for others to enjoy this annual ritual.

Autumn is officially here now in our house. Not to wish away the summer, but autumn means chicken pie with butternut squash and bramble crumble with ice cream and that can never come too soon for me.
