If you’ve been overlooking raspberries, get your eyes checked, and look again.

Whether your preference is to the classic red, the intriguing gold, or the elusive black; raspberries are one of the most delicious berries of the bunch.

There is so much produce available all at once in the summertime it becomes difficult to decide what you want.  It’s an embarrassment of riches that those of us that lose our local goodies with the change of the seasons, so we need to remember to appreciate them between our beach trips and lobstah rolls.

Aside from my dad, I rarely hear people profess their love for the raspberry.  This makes no sense to me.  They are sweet AND tart, and are great for eating on their own, thrown in with yogurt and granola, or on top of ice cream at dessert.

They may not have their own shortcake like strawberries, or be so beloved in pies as blueberries; but they are not to be ignored.
