We went blueberry picking at ira cline farm last weekend. The farm is a couple of miles from the house. they have yummy strawberries in may and loads of blueberries in july.
davis doesn't really love blueberries. he prefers the flecks that resemble blueberries in muffin mix. i let lane taste a blueberry when we started picking and he spit it out. then he realized they were yummy and ate blue and purple and green blueberries off of the bushes the rest of the time we were there. luckily, he did not have a stomachache later.
it didn't take long at all to fill a box. after about 15 minutes, davis was done 'helping' and lane was steadily eating, so joel and i picked quickly. we picked 4 quarts. they were really sweet!
this past week we have enjoyed blueberry muffins (lots of blueberry muffins), blueberry pancakes and blueberry yum-yum. i must say, i am a little blueberried out. we still have plenty left over for freezing, so don't worry.
ellen went picking with us, but dozed in the stroller the whole time. here is a current picture of her after her two month dr. appt. with my little pony band-aids from her shots. she is really a big girl. very smiley and squiggly. notice the very cute cutesy cloth onesie:
