Tougas Revisited

Yesterday we went back to Tougas Farm. This time it was for blueberries. Blueberries are so much easier to pick than strawberries. They come off easy and no bending over required. I took the top of the bush and Joanna took the bottom.



We got a bunch of berries and Joanna made some new friends.



The younger child in the picture was having a little trouble getting the berries into her basket. Her mother said she should have weighed her before they went in so they could have accounted for all the berries she ate in the field.

After picking the berries we went to Rick's office to do some work and took the blueberries with us. Between the visitors and the regular office staff there were a lot fewer berries when we left.

We are watching Mopsy this weekend and when I spoke with Jan about it she said she had a recipe for blueberry rhubarb pie. That sounded yummy! She said she would leave the recipe on the counter when we came to get the dog and we could help ourselves to some rhubarb from the garden. We only had one problem. When Rick got there we realized we had no idea what rhubarb looked like when it was growing in the ground. We decided to get some from the store since we knew what it looked like there. Here is the result.
















Can't wait to try it tonight!
