I couldn't help it. I looked forward to it all week and was not disappointed. My berry farmer from Sauqoiut brought his first blueberries to the market yesterday. Hannah and Luke and I crammed our cheeks with the tasty morsels all day, then brought home the rest for canning. Yes, it's the hottest day of the year and I heated up the house quite a bit with two giant pots boiling for a couple of hours, but it's done. I have ten lovely pints of summer sweetness and goodness to take us through the long, harsh winter. Blueberries are loaded with anti-oxidants. Okay, I know, there is enough sugar in these pints to do serious damage, but, taken in small doses, it really keeps me going.
