Dessert: Blackberry Fools
 I just started receiving "Everyday Foods" this past month and have enjoyed several of the recipes.  I didn't alter this one bit, but halved the recipe, which was a perfect size for two people.  One recommendation, a larger opening to your serving vessels.  I have margarita glasses that would have been a better choice.

Martha's Blackberry Fools- serves 2
1 cups blackberries, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Blend berries, sugar and lemon juice in the blender.  Pour through a fine mesh strainer to remove all seeds.  Note, I used a splatter screen and it involved real work getting the berry mixture through it... I'd recommend something a bit more porous than that.
Whip cream and vanilla in kitchen aid until stiff peaks form.  Fold whipped cream into berry sauce.  Put in serving glasses and chill.  Top with 2 whole blackberries and some reserved berry sauce as a garnish.
