| - Algerita Bush - |
The algerita bushes and apricot trees are heavy with bumper crops this year, but the window for picking is very small. I've been fantasizing about apricot jam with a few berries thrown in or a sunrise concoction made up of mostly apricot jam in a jar topped with a layer of algerita. I've never eaten such, but it makes my mouth water to think about it smeared on a piece of heavily buttered toast.
The photo was taken on a Mitchell County back road. I haven't seen any around here because they were burned out in last year's fires. Regrowth is evident, though, and the berries will once again be plentiful in this part of Fisher County.
