My Dad grew strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries, and we had black raspberries growing wild. I only realize now how spoiled I was. No blackberries though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I want to be able to go outside and pick a bowl of bacon. With cheesy potatoes.
Like, pick from a bacon tree?

olallieberries
There's a place in Pescadero (Duarte's Tavern) that has the best olallieberry pie. So delicious.
I miss the Bay Area.

The olallieberry (pronounced oh-la-leh, sometimes spelled ollalieberry, olallaberry, olalliberry, ollalaberry or ollaliberry) is a cross between the loganberry and the youngberry, each of which is itself a cross between blackberry and another berry (raspberry and dewberry, respectively).
THIS IS A PERVERSION OF FRUIT.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

A crispy hot bacon tree. I'd give up the Francophone priest scenario from yesterday for this.

Because books.
A warm bread tree might be first choice for me. Although cheese is also tempting.
Less so when I think about picking it off a tree, but still.

Okay, in my fantasy world the priest with the thigh holster is delivering it to me, but I don't want to appear choosy.

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal
Man...I saw the Wire signal, but missed my chance being all scrupulous...Sheeit. It took me about four episodes before I wanted to watch more, but it didn't really*have* me until "I got the gun...you got the briefcase." Now I would watch David Simon bitch out the cable man. And probably cry at the end. We got it like that. (My fondest broadcasting wish= David Simon on "Countdown" Ego Shortage on Eastern Seaboard, Boehner, GOP, Blame Obama)

megan, you need to come on one of the Wigglebutts walks with me anytime from mid-July to September. Blackberries GALORE. Last year I made a pie or cobbler nearly every week.
And gained 15 pounds.
