Something a little more expected

I suppose this would be a more literal action of eating off the land, as the bushes that I picked these blackberries from were actually growing in the ground. I had my eye on them for a while; the bushes were in the yard of an abandoned house right across from mine. Thankfully I picked them when I did, because a few days later, the bushes were cut down, which was sad.


I got about two cups of berries, not much, but it was enough to make muffins with and have a lot left over for eating plain. I picked up a donut pan at a thrift shop a few months ago ($2!) and haven't had a chance to use it, so I figured, why not make donut shaped muffins? Unfortunately in my excitement to use my new pan, I forgot that I wanted to make lime-blackberry muffins, and totally forgot to add the lime, which I'm pretty sure would have been awesome. Not that these weren't awesome. I'm just saying.

Oh yeah, and then I dropped two of these on the ground where they became completely covered in dog hair, and I left one in the pot of my rice cooker, only to find it a few days later when I needed to make rice. Awesome.
