When I was a child, a friend and I used to pick rasperries in a huge patch over the other side of some railroad tracks.

It was so huge we had to tunnel in.

We'd pick for several hours, enough for two pies -- one for my friend's mom, one for my mom.

Then there was the third pie's worth, the ones that never made it into the buckets and went straight into our mouths!
