this weekend, mike and i went to a great berry farm near us. i have wanted to go blueberry picking for a long time, but when we got there, they had blueberries AND blackberries, so i was really excited! the prices were phenomenal. we picked blueberries, blackberries, got some pre-picked raspberries, and some honey sticks [my fav] for less than $10. i can't wait to go back in a few weeks to pick raspberries!
does anyone remember this book?
i felt like sal all day because i was eating too many berries.
my original plan was to make this recipe i found for cinnamon crusted blueberry loaf over at little rays of sunshine... but i might have already eaten almost all of the blueberries - whoops!
