I really enjoyed my visit to Berkeley Bowl this morning. Practically everything is in season. The tomatoes aren't quite there yet, but the berries, peaches, cherries, nectarines,  figs,  plums and mangoes are ripe. It was hard to choose among all this glorious profusion. I settled for a bag of cherries and a bag of figs. I'm about to put a foccacia in the oven fresh from a Berkeley bakery, smeared with lemon olive oil from St. Helena, covered with Black Mission figs and topped with Point Reyes blue cheese.
