 What a great crop of mulberries!

I looked up this recipe for Lyn next door.  Meanwhile, I am spreading out mulberries on a baking tray and putting them into the freezer.  As soon as they are frozen, I can put them into a freezer bag or tupperware. This means I can have berries on porridge all year round.
