Fruits of summer

Blackberry picking yesterday in Isleworth (great tasting ones from the local church grounds).  Something really satisfying about picking fruit and then eating it over the following few days.  Few scratches from thorns until I remembered to 'ask and listen' for permission to pick, and the blackberries then just popped off the stalk into my bucket.  Later that evening, made Spanish tortilla omelette with potatoes and courgettes from Sarah's allotment, topped with basil from Dan's garden, (eggs, mushrooms & ham courtesy of Morrisons).  Made quite a few dishes, and then took them around to different neighbours who have been so lovely to us over the years (we're due to move on Wednesday).  Who says nature and community doesn't exist in London?!!!
