107 Degrees F

Today was ridiculous. We closed up all the windows at 3 a.m. and tried to keep the house cool as we watched the temperature rise to 107 degrees!! The kids and I picked black raspberries and made a cobbler for dessert. Our neighbor even picked us up some vanilla ice cream on his way home from town.
So the kids and I said a big thank you to Mother Earth for giving us all these berries. We had planned on canning berry jam all day. But when we awoke at 6:15 (thank you horrible rooster) it was already 80 - not 52 like it was the previous morn.

 So the canning idea got dumped, as did most other plans. 

And we had a great berry cobbler!
