What is a whotleberry?

All is sunny and rainy in Moskva. I am panicking about exams that i don't know quite when are cos its all in Russian and struggling with a terrible teacher who loves Pushkin. I have nothing against the chap but shes not a good teacher. She only gets really enthusiastic about teaching 10 minutes after the lesson is supposed to have finished.... But last night i cooked Shephard's pie for my suprised babooshka and i have now been promoted to 'jam status" in our flat. That means im allowed to eat the jam on the table. And wot nice jam it is too. the current jar is apricot and blackberry. Thick and sweet but not too sweet. My bab is a true jam maker.

In Russia its common to put jam in your tea.
