Wild Blackberry - Free Food!

A few days ago during our early morning walk with Barley, our lovely Lurcher, Mr.R saw some blackberries growing along the side of the coastal walk.
He picked what we agreed was the largest blackberry, and it was big - compared to all of the other berries, but as you can see it was almost lost in his hand.
The climate here is obviously just not warm enough to produce lovely large blackberries. Despite its miniscule size this blackberry tasted nice, and it's free so we're not complaining.
Having said that, we do miss our old life in the South of France. But we have lovely sea views, so it's not all bad.

Wanted to get some shots of the dog running. Couldn't. He was way too fast.  So here's a blackberry, and a sea-view. You're welcome!  #blackberry #fruit #food #sea #seaview #countryside #sunrise #sunrays #sky #clouds


Ha! Rambling as usual.
I only wanted to post this seaview, blackberry photo - so I think that's more than enough words.
Do you have blackberries growing where you live?
Big, ripe, sweet, juicy blackberries?
Do you eat them as they are, or take them home and use them in a recipe?
