July 2008
This weekend was Family Reunion - my father's side. It was fun to see cousins and cousins-several-times-removed (our grandfathers were brothers - not sure what that makes us!). Good times and good foor. We had been Up North picking wild blueberries earlier in the week so I made my mom's blueberry coffeecake with butter sauce for the reunion. Wild blueberries are SO much better than the commercial ones - no comparison.
Also this week we had the first home-grown sweet corn of the summer. What a treat! Two of my very favorite summer things - wild blueberries and sweet corn - in the same week!! It just doesn't get any better than that. Oh, yes, and the first ripe tomato from the garden. As you will come to see, I travel on my stomach. lol . . .
