[Sca-cooks] Llama was Mute Swan

[Mark Hendershott]

You mentioned two things which can get away from you.  The blackberriy 
consuming us here is Oregon is the Himalayan Blackberry.  I understand we 
can blame Luther Burbank for the introduction.  If you plant blackberries, 
plant a tame variety-Boysenberry, Marionberry or some such.  Mint will take 
over also.  Keep it confined in some container or it will appear forever in 
strange spots in the garden.
