Jam Tomorrow

This little bug visited the bowl of blackberries that was to be my blip. Hopped on and jumped off. I'm sure someone will tell us what bug this is.

Apparently the phrase 'Jam Tomorrow' originates from Alice's encounter with the White Queen in Through the Looking Glass. No Jam today ... "every other day" ... hence the phrase suggests something good in the future but which will likely not happen.

'Jam Tomorrow' takes me back to the Norfolk Folk duo, The Kipper Family who parodied many popular (folk) songs. In their farewell album 'In The Family Way' they include 'Jam Tomorrow' inspired by Jambalaya, a hit for The Carpenters.

BTW - The blackberries did make four jars of Bramble Jelly :)
