Mulberries on Flag Day



Vincent Van Gogh painting called: mulberry tree

What does Flag Day, mulberries and my grandma have in common?  June 14th.
June 14th is Flag Day, my Grandmothers birthday and mulberries are ripe and falling off the tree.

My maternal grandmother, Flo (FDR), had a huge mulberry tree in her back yard, where we kids picked mulberries by the bowlful, added milk and lots of sugar and slurped away.
Remembering those barefoot summer days, we all got purple hands and purple feet picking the mulberries.

Pick'n mulberries on Flag day

Here we go around the mulberry bush
the mulberry bush, the mulberry bush
here we go around the mulberry bush
so early in the morning.

Enjoy! 


Happy Birthday Grandma Flo on Flag Day
