They are all California stuff!

Everything sold in those markets has been locally grown. Nothing is imported.

Or am I missing your meaning?

The blackberries are very good. The only problems are in the seeds! They get stuck in my teeth! Oh well, it's a small price to pay for something so delicious.

I think spring is my favorite time of year. Even though our winters aren't harsh at all, having the flowers and new leaves return is refreshing to my eyes.

I've lurk-watched DU's PHOTOGRAPHY for ages. It's my second fav after Salmon Chanted Evening. So many folks with a good eye on bringing life into the world of others through the lens. I appreciate the beauty. There's a grace in sharing that. Thank you, truly, again!

I thought the roses were very special too.

And you know how much I enjoy taking these, every week. We really need beauty, all the time.

I am honored to be able to provide some of that, every week.

Seeing those beautiful berries rekindled a memory of going to Knotts Berry Farm and enjoying their delicious berry pie for dessert.
PS: LOVE the roses photos!❤️
