Bonn berry pie

Woke up with fever & bronchitis today so didn't get any miles in. Good weather, poor health - too much work last week, I guess, so my body tells me.

I DID however pick up berry pie yesterday at a konditorei and got out of bed to have peppermint tea & PIE made from Himbeere (raspberries), a hint of Preiselbeere (cranberries) and a local berry just in season that seems to be like our central Texas dewberries that grow along the RR rights-of-way. The crust was almost but not quite Greek filo butter crust, the white cream is some kind of delicious custard. The berries are in a clear mildly-sweet aspic on top of all. The bakery lady was very reluctant to let me take it home with me yesterday, worried that it would not survive the walk home - she would have preferred I ate yesterday in the coffee shop to keep its perfection intact.

Since I failed to ride the requisite 15 miles, you guys may kick me off the team or whatever, I'm taking a decongestant & going back to bed...but the PIE was the highlight of my day!
