On a walk up the Cavehill with the mutt -  late summer raspberries hanging like jewels. Sweet and tart, a world away from supermarket offerings. I could bring them home and make something of them but there are too few and so I happily eat.  And there are the promise of blackberries, looks like a good crop. 


And much and all as I love sloe gin, I think I might try a blackberry liqueur this year.
