🍓🫐 Berry season is ON ~ here’s what to make!


Hey friends❣️

July is prime time for berry baskets, roadside stands, and U-pick farms!

I really enjoy sitting down in the morning to send out these emails to you guys ~ we reach all corners of the globe, which is mind boggling. And all of you have your own unique experience with berries, some I've probably never heard of.

But whether you've got good old fashioned wild blueberries, or cloudberries, lingonberries, black currants, or gooseberries, you can usually swap them out in any of these recipes with delicious results.

Summer's Best Berry Recipes


Guide to Summer Berry Picking

We're lucky here in the US to have access to so many wild berries to forage. It's one of the highlights of summer for me. Right now I'm amassing a small collection of black raspberries and tiny mulberries in my fridge ~ when I get enough I'll bake up something fabulous...stay tuned!

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about? My recipes are bold and vibrant, but totally approachable ~ and my philosophy? We should all have the tools to feed ourselves well, and the confidence to cut loose a little in the kitchen. Food should be fun!
