If you have been following my blog, you probably know that my favorite fruit is blueberries. I think I have about 15 blueberry recipes on my blog. My favorite time of year is coming!! Blueberry season in Maine! I thought we had eaten all of the blueberries that I had stashed in the back of the freezer underneath the frozen waffles. But as I was rummaging through the freezer and frozen burritos were falling on my feet, I squealed that I had a quart of blueberries, way, way in the back, untouched!
