It's good for what ails ya.

The week takes its toll.  

The weekend's chores are daunting.
The idea of taking a few hours off in the middle of the day is guilt-inducing, self-indulgent. 

But oh, the soothing balm of wineberries and blackberries, 

and Mayapples, and elderberries, and sumac berries, and milkweed pods. 

I feel much better. 

Just in time for Monday.
