Can't wait to try this tonight

The mere title of this thread has me droolin' --- ohhhh yummmmmm!

My blackberries are gone for the season...guess I will use frozen ones!

We just picked about 15-20 lbs, most of which are either in preserves or frozen. We're going this weekend to pick some more and maybe some raspberries.

yeah New York is not known for good produce late in the season.

sure sure, rub it in!
I only have a couple bushes I keep in the back yard. It usually gives me enough for a pie or 2. I should have gone to the berry bush and picked some to freeze, duh me.

I still have tomatoes, green beans, and strawberries going strong!
shhhh don't tell. With all the rain we have gotten this year, I am surprised we had anything at all to harvest.

since your in new york,, you should try some of the produce in maryland and PA. its not too terribly far away,, and you will get some great stuff.

I love blackberries and this is one of my favorites..Thanks

Thanks for recipe looks good.

I live in western ny..if i went to maryland it would be a heck of a road trip!
pa has the same growing season we do, and the same produce. it only takes me an hour to drive down to erie, pa, which i do quite a bit.

Ok, we finally got around to making this recipe. The dough was too sweet and really kind of tough. Not sure if I did something wrong or if it's just the recipe. It wasn't bad but it wasn't what I was hoping for. I may play around with it and tweak it a little to see what happens. Make it more like a shortbread, maybe.
