Backyard Raspberries

It happened again...someone stopped over while the girlies were out back picking raspberries. They came out of the overgrown berry patch, and offered my friend some of what they picked. Nothing like fresh fruit from the garden.

Then she asked the question that everyone asks..."So, what do you do with the raspberries?"

The girlies think this is a weird question. We eat them, silly! We eat them.

I grow about 2 seed packets worth of sugar snap peas, about 100 or so Raspberry canes, at least 100 or so strawberries (mostly Junebearing), gooseberries, currants, and cherries. 

What do we do with them? We eat them of course...fresh from the garden....all day long...why ruin it with sugar and cooking?

(I don't eat the peas. I have a green vegetable phobia that I'm still working through...but the kids eat them like potato chips and occasionally fight over them).

Is there any better thing to be eating on a hot day?
