It hasn't been a great year for soft fruit, the berries and plums don't seem to have done too well, but if you do manage to find some, there is a delicious dessert you can try
Find whatever sort of fruit you can , the more types the merrier
put them all in a pan with a little water and some sugar if the fruit is too tart
heat until the fruit is lightly stewed
layer in a glass with cream or a custard/cream mix or fold the cream and fruit together, serve and relish!
Relish is right! Nothing like berries and cream. We have a lot of wild raspberries this summer and a few wild Alaska blueberries. I went blueberry picking, but didn't last long because the mountainside smelled heavily of bear musk and it scared me away. My friend made some raspberry jam with honey from her own hives right here in the city! "Harvest" is one my favorite words!
