We tend to enjoy things on vacation that others might not think are enjoying! Being the preserving/putting food away folks that we are, we bring canning jars along in case we get enough blueberries!
The blueberries this year were exceptional. I had resigned myself to a bad year since there were fires earlier this spring and the whole arrowhead region was dry. But the rains must have been well-timed for the blueberries. The berries were large and plentiful.
We made sure to “eat local” even while on vacation! We had fresh blueberry pancakes, blueberry muffins, blueberry cobbler and fried walleye. In addition to all the blueberries we ate fresh, we brough home 24 half-pint jars of whole canned berries and many gallons more fresh to make jam and freeze. I think we must have picked about 6 gallons of blueberries throughout the week.
