It's Blueberry Time!blueberry picking

I love this time of year again when the blueberry bushes are bursting forth with indigo goodness. I love spending the morning picking berries with the family and although it's about 90 (hello, didn't I just LEAVE this weather?) we are having a great time and are picking fast to get in under the shady tent. 

Since my backyard was a jungle when I returned to it just 2 weeks ago today, I bought a blueberry bush to replace the one that misteriously dissapeared in our absence. 

Seriously, these berries are huge and after we came home with over 10 pounds of juiciness I was welcomed by my box of good from the nearby organic farm that I missed so terribly.

What is it about the Pacific Northwest? The freshness, the water, the mountains? It's all part of the charm and I am giddy with excitement to be back amongst my "green".

So, stocked with a surfeit of blueberries (there's your word for the day) and an abundance of harvest goodies, we head into the weekend, full and very regular!

Awesome! Blueberries are my favorite and we have been picking them for a few weeks here too.  It's wonderful, we just always need to check there isn't a bear on the other side of the bush.  Welcome Home!

when my daughter was about 3 years old we were picking for a pie, she ended up eating all the berries as a I picked them and put them in her bowl... so funny, thanks for the memory.

Hi Tammy, do I see  a pie or cobbler in your future? As I remember your hubby is quite the chef, right? Maybe Blueberry scones...

You're making me hungry Tammy.  There's nothing better than fresh fruit, especially berries.  Thinking about putting them in a pie or cobbler is just about to make me run out to the store and get the fixings for one of these.

I've got a freezer full of plump blueberries to last us through the winter.  Welcome back to the Pacific Northwest.  It's a great place to live.

Tammy, Thanks for the reminder. It's been so busy I've forgotten to go picking. Will fit it in tomorrow or Wensday. The one bush in our yard was ready a month ago, but the bushes up in the mountains take longer and taste better.
