This was the last of my Upper Michigan Blueberries. I'm not sure how I will survive the next couple of months until they are once again in season. My parents live on Lake Superior in Northern Michigan, blueberries are plentiful come August. I am fortunate I have a husband and a couple of kids (not all) who actually enjoy picking, I will be honest, I really don't like it at all...... I usually manage to stay out of the patches. I am also fortunate that those that pick will share!
Special memories: blueberries actually grow in and around my parents yard/property. I think every grandchild has come to Grandma at some point of their toddler life with a fist full of berries, proudly giving them to her and proclaiming that now she can make a blueberry pie. The amazing part is, Grandma always manages to make a blueberry pie, using that fist full of berries........
