Raspberries and Rain

As I sit in the office, listing to the pounding rain on the roof, I worry about my raspberry crop. The days and days of sunless weather and drizzly skies make everyone sour and blue. Time for haiku.

Rain falls day to day
Washing the raspberries clean.
Can we pick them wet?


Raspberry creme brulee this weekend, and hopefully another pie. I can't find any information that says picking them wet is a bad thing, so I'm just going to put on my rain suit and do it!

  2. Cool gray wet shrouding
    Sluggish footing made easy
    The berries don't care
