fourth of july, boysenberry pie




We spent the holiday weekend in Michigan at my in-law's house--a very quiet, relaxing place. I read the second-half of Unaccustomed Earth by Jhumpa Lahiri, and I'd highly recommend it. We took a break from our lounging, suited up, coated ourselves in mosquito spray, and wandered down into the meadow behind the house to pick (what we believe to be) wild boysenberries. My mother-in-law baked them into a pie just like she did this time last year. I think we've found ourselves a new summer tradition.
