#gooseberries

Picked some of the berries today. There's more gooseberries than I could fit in one bowl.

This sweet and tangy homemade gooseberry jam is ideal for spreading on toast or topping yogurt or ice cream with.

Instructions: Wash the gooseberries and remove the stems. Place them in a large pot, cut in half. Stir in the sugar, water, and lemon juice until thoroughly combined. Cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Bring the mixture to a boil by increasing the heat to high. Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove the pot from the heat and set aside for a few minutes to cool. Fill sterilized jars halfway with jam and allow to cool completely before sealing.

This Blueberry Gooseberry Smoothie is a tasty and nutritious way to start the day. It's high in antioxidants and nutrients, and the combination of blueberries and gooseberries creates a delicious flavor.

Instructions: Blend blueberries, gooseberries, banana, Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey, and vanilla extract in a blender. Blend until completely smooth. Blend in the ice cubes until the mixture is creamy and thick. Pour the smoothie into the glasses and serve right away.

Berry Ratty!

So excited about these fruity little BERRY RATTY stickers! I just wanna draw rats and berries sometimes. Weirdly none of these rats look like any I've had??? The blueberry rat might look a little like Peppercorn but he's generally too evil to match.
