Mixed Berry Compote

The vacation last month was a much needed respite for me. Despite a hectic travel schedule I did manage to sneak in some R & R while staying with my parents.  Right now I am recharged and have started getting up early to cook a little everyday.  As my Mom is visiting again, I also get some time to take it easy and only cook one dish in leisure. Today I made Pancakes with Berry Compote for breakfast. 

I have a pack of mixed berries in my  freezer and am trying to use them up. Usually I buy fresh berries during the season and freeze them  for the rest of the year.  I still have a small stash left from last year though and am trying to use it up.
