We went berry picking today. Typically I absolutely love picking berries. It's one of the most raw and natural ways to spend a day. But with all of the stress I've experienced lately, my mind wasn't on the happy habit of berry picking. Rather it was caught up in the worries of what was awaiting me at home. Even so, I managed to fill half of my basket. It's not much, but it's made three jars of jam. I hope my energy peaks soon and I manage to fill more jars before winter. The jam is a perfect sweet reminder of summer amidst the snow.
