Kennedy and I went blueberry picking today!!!!! We drove 30minutes to The Berry Patch! What fun! We got there before 8:30am so they wouldn't be picked out for the day - and I was so glad we got there early! We beat the rush!
Kennedy had a great time for the first few bushes! She said things like "This place makes me smile" and "We are having such a fun day." But after 10minutes she was done picking! She was fairly content to watch me pick though! Especially because she could just sit and eat berries then!
The Berry Patch also had a kids area complete with hay bails, a huge slide, balancing beams, a rope obstacle course and more! There was a blue train as well that Kennedy HAD to ride on! In the gift shop she got a cookie and I got some delicious blueberry lemonade....YUMMO!
So this afternoon I started baking with the berries! I tried a Blueberry Buckle recipe you can find here. And a fruit cobbler recipe you can find here.
We haven't tasted them yet but I will let you all know what we think of them!!!! And yes, Iowa family - we will be bringing MORE yummy blueberry treats when we visit this weekend!!!!!
I hope you all have a happy and safe July 4th!!!!!!!!!!!!!
