things i loved last week

blackberries

i'm not sure if blackberries are in season, but i had some really good berries last week (courtesy of whole foods) and then had like three yummy blackberry cocktails at this bar on friday night.

i know that blackberries can sort of be difficult to eat, because they are large and have large, edible seeds and they can easily get stuck in your teeth. but when they are ripe they are just the right mix of sweetness and tartness. yum!
