Blueberry Picking

Last week the temperature was in the triple digits so what did I do with my two small children? We went blueberry picking.



We were covered in sun block, had a large cooler of ice water and were among the blueberry bushes by 10 am, but it was still sort of ridiculous. The kids were beet red within minutes.



Anyway, my small migrant farm workers-in-training and I picked over 11 lbs of berries. Lots were eaten by the handful, a couple pounds are now in our freezer, another pound or so are in blueberry jam,



lots were eaten by the handful, and another couple of cups are in this cake. The recipe's one of my favorites to make in summer, and because it's from Cooking Light, I can say that it's almost healthy.
