What a rush...<BR/><BR/>Anyhow, thanks for all the suggestions. Meg, the pancake idea sounds really delightful. I could make the this for my faithful brunch group maybe.<BR/><BR/>And Alisha, now that I know who you are, I can confidently say welcome to my blog. Crash, schmash. Glad to hear I'm not the only berry-picking newbie to dress inappropriately.<BR/><BR/>And Catherine, shucks, thanks for the vote of confidence. I'm glad you remember that pie because I sure do!clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12599316062875117519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-984559341455501820.post-4409298563113507102007-09-12T22:53:00.000-07:002007-09-12T22:53:00.000-07:00Although this whole "pershky" business sounds intr...Although this whole "pershky" business sounds intriguing, i respectfully think that pie is definitely the way forward. Mainly because your blackberry pie rocks my world. this is despite the seeds. and seeds are usually not my friend.<BR/><BR/>- catherine<BR/><BR/>PS: Have you considered posting restaurant reviews? just a suggestion...catherine w.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00962294086629650283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-984559341455501820.post-82583977669817285102007-09-10T22:26:00.000-07:002007-09-10T22:26:00.000-07:00Claire, I hope you don't mind me crashing your blo...Claire, I hope you don't mind me crashing your blog party, but Meg just told me about it and I felt a sudden urge to comment. <BR/><BR/>I recently went blackberry picking with my friend out in Burnaby and had the same thorny experience as you! I was wearing a long, full tiered skirt and a tank top, which was not a good choice of outfit, as you can imagine.<BR/><BR/>With our blackberries, we made a homemade pie, and it was delicious.Leeeeeshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04411121495906498055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-984559341455501820.post-13720160929673047552007-09-10T22:19:00.000-07:002007-09-10T22:19:00.000-07:00Mmm, I can't believe I've still never been berry p...Mmm, I can't believe I've still never been berry picking in the city!<BR/><BR/>I voted for pie, but my very favourite blackberry thing is a sauce my mom used to make and pour over pancakes. I think it was mostly just blackberries and sugar, maybe some citrus zest, but boiled down it got all thick and sweet and delicious. And the best part is the colour it turns the pancakes when it soaks into them – kind of hot pink.Meg Whetunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03289668838018886254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-984559341455501820.post-6073391335731082402007-09-10T10:33:00.000-07:002007-09-10T10:33:00.000-07:00Pershky is brilliant!

You really do make the world a better place, Claire!<BR/><BR/>I voted for cobbler, but I was also thinking the Mennonite "platz" or "pershky" would be good. Like the apple stuff, but try with blackberries. It would really be a first.c-licioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15727860820457179593noreply@blogger.com
