It's blackberry season!



When August hits (and the start of the school year approaches) I remember that I haven't yet harvested blackberries from the marshes around the harbor.

After pouring them into pie shells, we dotted them with butter- Munch's official kitchen job is "butter unwrapper" and she likes to sneak pinches from the stick when I'm not watching. I added a top layer & into the oven they went.

Less than an hour later, we had this lovely pie:
