So, the girls and I must pick raspberries Monday morning. The season has opened; strawberries are done, raspberries are to be frozen next.
I think that, as a consequence of my aging, it seems we are always freezing fruit for my mother-in-law to eat. It seems my routine is feeding the woman...and my children. I have 2 chest freezers and by Monday night 1 will be completely full with this year's fruit: 100 litres of strawberries, 16 litres of rhubarb and whatever we do in raspberries. Do you realize an 100 year old woman will eat all this? Seriously.
If I didn't see my mother-in-law actually eat, I wouldn't believe it either.
Ooh, and the sugar...
As my husband likes to question, "Why is this house always out of sugar?"
I think you know the answer. We cannot be the only family in the world living like this...
