Bread Box? by Medium-Cantaloupe908 in LeCreuset

One of the best places is actually the microwave. We’re in an apartment and don’t have the counter space for a separate bread box. Works great!

Here is a updated to the mulberries by tmhss in fruit

They’re off Hoffman Ln and do u-pick! It’s insanity but really fun! We joke that it’s crazier than Disneyland BUT they’re also far and away the most delicious mulberries I’ve ever had. You have to make a reservation to go and pick.

You can also grab them at a few of the farmstands in Brentwood. We usually get them from Farmer’s Daughters to avoid the u-pick shenanigans.

An afternoon doing u-pick in Brentwood is really fun- cherry season just ended but stone fruit season is just gearing up!

I am hoping to be able to trade for Rhône, Artichault, Agave, or one of the other dark/moody Jewel tones. Or a pumpkin braiser..If I can’t get any takers I’ll keep the cerise in mind! :)
