Summer......

has definitely arrived! My mom picked the black raspberries pictured above at a secret location down by the Mississippi. They are delicious and no bigger than my fingertip. Some of these will be featured in a berry/rhubarb crisp (coming soon to a blog near you).

Everything is blooming. Here is a flower in my sister's yard from last weekend. I think it is called Indian Blanket?

Below is a picture of the Ladderball set we played with over the weekend (have you tried it yet? It's fun even if you have little to no skill).

The last picture is of a new-to-me boardgame called Kragmortha. Very silly and the rules are pretty straightforward.
