sign of summer

[redbird]

A blackberry just burst on my tongue.

Yes, it's a shipped-from-somewhere-South berry, but basically ripe, and sweet and juicy. And I have several more in a bowl, and the rest of a small container I'm saving for breakfast.

(Sure, it's cool and damp this evening, but I have blackberries. Also hot chocolate, because it is that kind of night. Do I contradict myself? Very well...)

There is an exception to this: Aztec-style hot chocolate is good when it's hot. Lots of hot pepper goes well with hot weather.
