I think I'll make a blackberry cobbler tomorrow and maybe a loaf of

Show off! My poor old zucchinis have got so much powdery mildew on
them that I'll be amazed if I get another zucchini off them before
the frosts come.


gloat I have both fresh-frozen blackberries and shredded zucchini in my
freezer ... and several gallons of muscadines .

I haven't seen a muscadine in years, most people that buy land with
muscadines cut them down so they won't be in the way. Between muscadines
and possum grapes we used to make lots of jellies and jams. I miss them
but the builders don't like them.

What are you going to do with them?



We have both muscadines and scuppernongs. I eat lots of them and make
jelly too. Will probably can some juice this year.

When I was young I would go to my uncle's and stuff myself on
scuppernongs. We moved to Florida and that first fall he mailed me a
cigar box of scuppernongs. When we moved back to NC my grandfather
had built a scuppernong arbor in the back yard. Heaven!
