TFM: Discover the fruit of your delight. July 6, 2010

“Raspberries are my favorite. Look at this one, isn’t it beautiful!?!” is the constant chatter coming from my almost 5 year old this year as we harvest from our small backyard patch. The freshness and delight that he brings to the process of berry picking is inspirational, a reminder of the beauty and uniqueness of each individual fruit. And when I am rushed by time and have forgotten what’s really important, his words bring me back to what is real and true, right in front of me. Then I had to laugh when I got a call from my Dad, who moved to a farm in northern Ontario this past January; he had called to tell me how excited he is that he has raspberry bushes loaded with berries! Discover the fruit of your delight this week at TFM.
