I think I met my goal! Twelve pound of berries, ready to eat. I made a batch of muffins as soon as I got home from picking, and now I'm dreaming of cobbler or perhaps a sour cream blueberry pie. Mmm, the posssiblities are endless. What's your favorite way to enjoy this summer fruit?

Ripe for the picking
Picking blueberries is one of summer's simple pleasures for me. Last year my timing was off and I was disappointed to find bushes already picked clean or laden with unripened fruit. This summer I was determined to come home from The Berry Patch with enough to fill our bellies and our freezer.

weirdly enough, about an hour ago i was craving blueberry muffins out of a box. but muffins from scratch with fresh berries sounds so much better!
Looks like a perfectly wonderful day! Nice haul too! I am trying to keep track of how much produce we get from the homestead this summer. Interested to see how many berries we get! Hop you enjoy yours...
wow!
twelve pounds!
make sure you include blueberry pancakes!
Whoa! Those are HUGE blueberries! I'm hoping to get a handful of teeny tiny wild berries. Usually, some animal gets them first.
