Blueberries for Sal

Remember that book? Good stuff.

We went blueberry picking on Sunday. Lex was in
such a mellow mood and Eve slept for most of the time. It was
really nice. We brought a big white bucket and two halloween
pumpkins to fill, then sent Lex on a mission to find the
blue-ist of blueberries. He did pretty good. My friend said
that early-season blueberries are great, but after what we
found I still hold to my belief that mid- to late-August is
really blueberry time :) But we got a lot of decent berries and
so I decided to try my hand at blueberry jam. Lex and I started
it this morning (washing, squishing, etc.) and I finished it
while he napped (boiling hot berries and canning). I have to
let it sit for 24 hours, so I’ll let you know tomorrow how it
came out.
