Groan.....blueberry overload

18 years ago

Finally some nice blueberries in the store. They are huge, firm, luscious, and almost suspiciously sweet LOL!

In two days I have eaten the entire container. Which was a good idea at the time, but now my innards are objecting to the blue invasion. I was just eating them by the handful, popping them in my mouth like popcorn.

I don't even want to LOOK at a bluberry right now LOL. Seasonal produce at it's best. You wait all year then gorge on it, and don't even want to THINK about it again until next season!

Although maybe I could cover my eyes and get a few containers for the freezer LOLOL!


TMI break: Blueberries - natures best tasting laxative. Tee hee!

    LOVE blueberries, esp. on my cereal. They're so expensive right now.

    Gal at WalMart told me after she freezes her blueberries, she pours just a little bit of milk over them just to coat and puts back in freezer.
    Says it's a delicious snack! Crystalized blueberries

    Blueberry picking several years ago, I coated them in chocolate bark and froze. My DS went wild over them.

    We have two old, big blueberry bushes and get so many that we keep the whole family supplied and have gobs in the freezer. We've joked that we should put up U-pick signs. It will soon be time to pick and there are still lots in the freezer. We are in western WA and I guess it's a good place to grow them.

    I bought two large containers yesterday (BOGO free). I take plain yogurt with blueberries and granola to work for a snack every day. Sometimes I sweeten the yogurt with honey. Yum...burp.

    I grew up in MA and that is one thing I miss the most, fresh sweet blueberries! You can't buy decent ones here at the store or at least I have never found any.

    Blueberries are one of those "superfoods", very high in vitamins. Almonds are another.

    oh I sure miss blue berry picking. We used to live near a bog area and every year there were more berries than we could possibly pick. Walking on a bog is like walking on a mattress. It wasn't untill a few years after we moved and I was telling someone about it, and he said we were lucky we didn't fall through the bog, because there is water under it. Could be shallow or deep. Glad I didn't know about that or there would not have been any BB picking. Dottie

    I wish we had blueberries here. YUM! We pig out on melons when they are in season.
