Blatantly Stolen Raspberries



Well, not the berries but the idea, from my dear close personal friend and Gentle Viewer Gary J. Wood of Digital Meditations who posted THIS.

I commented on how my grandmother (not on the scooter below) used to have wild raspberries growing out of an old rusty cast iron potbelly stove in her yard and we kids would eat them (we were probably told not to) and now, years later, I so strongly associate old rusty cast iron and raspberries that I can hardly eat either one.

  1. Jeff, you are just way too funny. I love it...and the macro shots! (Still can't believe I'm able to comment this morning--must be because I waited for at least 30 minutes for dial-up to load the page!)

    In a day or two, I'll be stealing from you....so what comes around goes around (or is it the other way way around!).

  5. Raspberries do have an unusual tang. Never thought of it as iron. Hmm. Now I will.

    My mind keeps trying to picture that pot bellied planter...

  15. Yum.....and they're so big! My neighbor has a patch and gave me a pint container the other day. I've never done this before but ate the whole stash in one sitting. But they weren't this size....puny by comparison. Which in hindsight makes me feel like I must have eaten hundreds!
