😋😛 YUM! Sure looks good!!!
That takes me back. I picked more dewberries than blackberries (plumper and juicier) as a kid, but can remember getting loaded with chiggers and seed ticks from both. Had to carry a stick to part the vines, as snakes would hang out there, It was worth the itch once Mama ran them through a sieve to remove the seeds and canned them as jams and jellies. For some reason she never did pies.
Same here! I remember picking raspberries and blackberries in 95 degree heat, getting stuck by briars, carrying a snake stick, and hating every minute of the picking process. And loving every minute of the jellies and pies.

so you let dad get the chiggers huh................
We don't have chiggers. I haven't the patience to pick blackberries... And he enjoys it.

I would eat that all day! Tame or wild? Wild has a little more “tang” to them.
My fav is gooseberry, followed by the blackberry. 🌼✅
Yer killin' me here...
Wild.

Yum, yum.
Just finished off a big slice of strawberry rhubarb pie.
OH Ya and you even have the ice cream to go with ,, man that looks fantastic
no berries to speak of around these parts this year as it was too dry when they where making
back when I was a kid Mom always tried to get around a 100 qt put up , either frozen or canned ,, that was a lot of work
Blackberry is my favorite, pie or cobbler. Unless you bake the version with salt instead of sugar.
That pie looks really good. I love Blackberry cobbler. I am sure you'll enjoy it.
WOW, that looks Soooo GOOOOD !
I use about 6 cups of blackberries
1 1/2 cups of sugar sometimes 2 cups depending on the berries
About a half cube of butter cut up
1/4 cup flour. Mix. Pour into bottom pie crust. Flip top crust on cut off extra dough and crimp edges. Using a pastry brush "paint" water on and coat with sugar. Cut vents.
Start baking at about 400 degrees. Bake till it bubbles thick.
When finished run to town for vanilla ice cream 🍦😁

You and me both though I fear I'd weigh 475+!
I have a 29 year old, single son, that I will trade you. Hard worker too. Might need to be house trained a little. 🤣
As long as he's nice send him over. Lol
