Berry Week!
July 17, 2011 – 10:10 amIt’s that glorious week of summer in the northwest when all the berries are ripe. I went to the store this morning for my usual weekly big shopping trip, and they had all the large half flats out front and center in the produce section. I’ll have to brave the store after work a few times this week to keep loading up while they’re here! The half flat I got today was a variety pack – from left to right are Tayberries, Gold Raspberries, and Red Raspberries. I’ve never had tayberries before – they’re a cross between loganberries and red raspberries. I absolutely love them and will be seeking them out now! They’re a little bit tart with just a touch of an almost a citrus note. Not only did they have all the berries, but the first local Sungold cherry tomatoes are here too. I also got some gorgeous apricots. I’m in produce heaven 😀

JEALOUS!! Those are beautiful! Berries are over $3 for a half pint here so they’ve been a rare treat. I would devour that thing within a couple days. Enjoy!
