September 2010 Desktop Calendar
At the beginning of every month, I am offering C&Z readers a new wallpaper to apply on the desktop of your computer, with a food-related picture and a calendar of the current month.
Our calendar for September is a picture of blackberries taken at the greenmarket in Split when we traveled to Croatia two years ago. The produce on display was gorgeous, and we bought enough fruit -- including some of those plump berry clusters, called kupina in Croatian -- to have ourselves a mini-feast on the seafront.
If I could just click my heels and be teleported there I would, but in the meantime I'll just re-read the highlights from our trip and dive back into my photoset. Care to hop along?
Instructions to get your calendar are below!
Here's how it works:
1- This link will open a new window (or tab) displaying the right wallpaper image for your screen.
2- Right-click (or ctrl-click for some Mac users) on the image, and chose the option that says, "Set as Desktop Background", "Use as Desktop Picture," or something to that effect -- the exact wording will depend on the browser you use.
3- If the image does not fit your desktop background neatly, you may have to go to your preference screen (on a Mac: System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Desktop; on Windows: Control Panel > Display > Desktop) and choose "Fit to screen" as the display mode of your background image.
4- Enjoy!
[Note: Readers of this blog live all around the globe, and I am unable to provide localized versions of the desktop calendar at this point. This is why I've opted for the international standard, by which a large majority of countries abide, and which states that Monday is the first day of the week.]

Hi Clotilde, thanks for another lovely calendar! The colors in the photo are so lively. I noticed, however, that the calendar appears to be off by one day (Wednesday is the first). Thanks!
Would love to hop along..blackberries are a bit of a curse in Australia..8.8million hectares infested..it's seen as a weed..brought to Australia in the 1880s..
be that as it may...I loveeeeeeee the berries...muffins, folded though cream, eaten straight from the bush...'n oh those coloured fingers :-)
thanks for the beautiful photo and calender. those blackberries look so good I could taste them.
Yet again, you've decorated my laptop desktop!
Hi Clotilde,
this calendar, with a picture taken in my hometown just landed on my desktop!
Wanted to let you know that we follow your blog here in Croatia... and that it added some more of a French spirit into our Dalmatian kitchen - as addition to famous rožata.
Rainy greetings.
Happy to hear it, thank you!
What a great idea! It's a bit late but I do have the September one and I'm subscribing because I cannot wait for October. Greetings from Canada!
Great photo and calendar. Now I just need a pint of blackberries!
