Blueberry Picking and Baking Blueberry Pie
One of the best part of summer is Blueberry picking season!
This past weekend, we packed up some snacks, lots of water and our sunscreen and hats and headed off for some blueberry picking. We went to one of our many local blueberry farms and it was a blast! It was really hot out there but, we were prepared!
The girls had so much fun and both decided that they wanted to make a blueberry pie and keep some to snack on. They were excited that they’d soon be eating a pie that was made from the berries they picked themselves!
It was a blast!
I was afraid that Mimi would try to put them in her mouth but, she picked them and put them in the bucket with her Daddy! We all had fun, went home and had a delicious supper and I set off to make the girls their very own blueberry cake, watch out for the recipe tomorrow! Whether you are craving blueberries or go blueberry picking yourself this summer.
Nothing says summer like blueberry pie!
Anyway, it’s the small things like these that I will forever remember and keep in my heart for always!
Hope you’ve all had a great week so far, have you gone blueberry picking this summer?
Til next time, cheers m’deres!

I think fruit picking is the only activity we didn't do this year. We love blueberries though and Daddy loves anything that ends in the word Pie!

I agree with you, it is these moments in time which are so precious. The every day activities are what mean the most, and just spending time together a a family.
I have NEVER been blueberry picking before – strawberries and raspberries yes, but never blueberries.
