The first raspberries of the season – both sweet and sour

The first golden raspberry of the season. Abby picked a handful at the ranch and then brought them into her restaurant this morning. Matu and Eileen came in and joined me at my table and she gave two raspberries to each of us. Mine were so good... sweet, juicy - perfect. Matu ate one, said it was too sour for him and gave the other to Eileen.

When I was a girl growing up in Juneau, we would wait and wait and wait for salmonberry season and gorge ourselves on the delicious sweet-tart fruit. I found wild salmon berries here on the Oregon coast once and almost cried when the first taste brought a rush of my childhood summer memories.
