{all week, rinne will be writing posts from her annual family trip to maine.}
my family has been going to maine for the last 15 years. there is a large raspberry patch on the property and we go there every other day or so to pick berries. often, one of my parents walks my young sons down there to pick, and sometimes i go too.
it is a great way to start the day!
in years past, we have made jam or tarts from our harvests...and this year we made popsicles with lemon, mint, honey and raspberries.
but, truth be told, the raspberries don't always make it back to the kitchen; we often eat what we pick from our hands out in the field.
