Blueberries!!!


When we were in Northern NY last week, the blueberries were ripening so fast that my Uncle could hardly keep up picking them. I helped pick twice; once while my girl filled her belly basket and practiced her colors (blue, purple & green), then again by myself. We made our way back to the city with an ample supply for eating and freezing.
Back in the city - CSA pick-up day. Our share included... You guessed it: Blueberries! (And of course the ever present zucchini. I am always looking for new things to do with zucchini.) This weeks quest - a good Blueberry Zucchini Bread recipe. I found one on the blog My Baking Addiction (here: http://www.mybakingaddiction.com/blueberry-zucchini-bread/) and with some help from little hands we made a batch. The verdict... YUM! I am actually hoping that we get blueberries and zucchini again.

  1. I love blueberries but never see them wild here, blackberry season for us soon so we are sure to be out collecting and baking like you. Would love you to join my Country Kids linky with this too.

  2. Blueeberries are great, so tasty! We have a blueberry bush but it is still tiny and we only get a few off it so far. And we love zucchini too, I love making a zucchini slice when we have heaps :-)
