Blueberries

gifts from the land

multitudes of blue hues

spheres of perfection

Summer fruit is the best, whether peaches, strawberries, or the overall winner: blueberries. Highbush, lowbush, from a fruit stand, your grocery store, or hand-picked, they just rock. I especially like the tiny wee ones that just barely scrape out a living in northern Canadian shield landscapes. They have just that right combination of tart and sweet. And wild blueberry pie? Oh my.
