Blueberry Sunday
Some friends of ours have
harvested all they can handle from their blueberry crop and called us
up to see if we could find a home for these tasty treats.
We picked and picked and then
picked some more.
The current plan is to save
some back for dessert through the week, share some, and make the rest
into our first batch of blueberry fruit leather.
Or explore more posts by date or by subject.

Blueberries
That sounds like a good plan to me. How about freezing some to use in blueberry muffins or pancakes? You might also dry some for the same purposes.

Freezing vs. drying fruit
Sheila --- We don't tend to eat blueberry muffins or pancakes. (No grains for us except in dessert). After a lot of experimentation, I've found that frozen fruit doesn't really float our boat --- it's good if you bake with it or make smoothies, but we do neither, preferring our fruit unadulterated. Dried fruit fits our palates better.
