Hi Elly,

I'm afraid this is too late, but today I found this mulberry recipe and immediately thought of you. (June and I both were thinking of you and your mulberries today! Isn't TKL amazing?) When you made your original request, I searched my cookbooks and found only a dismissive comment in "Joy of Cooking," but this recipe is from a booklet I bought a couple of years ago, creatively entitled, "Dessert Cookbook." Sorry the birds got your mulberries. I can't remember the mulberry recipes posted for you before, but thought I'd go ahead and post this.
