Oh Melissa, you are indeed daunting. When I get a hankering for black raspberries (I don't much like the red ones) I buy a big bag of them frozen. Really, they are pretty darn close to fresh and mostly I make something with them like cobblers or smoothies or just pour them over ice cream. They are sold in all the upscale supermarkets here, all kinds of alien berries like blueberries, cherries, etc.
