Blueberries

The First Day of Summer (Summer Solstice)

is on Wednesday, June 20, 2012.

Wow, just back from picking blueberries. Imagine picking blueberries this early in June!  Did I mention that they were frozen blueberries? And that I was picking them out of the bottom of the freezer in our basement, on a dismal, rainy, cold Saturday morning.  But... it is so nice to have blueberries, even when they spill in the freezer, AND the weather outside is much warmer than inside my freezer.  These blueberries were photographed on Saltspring Island a few summers ago.
