We are CSA members to a farm and try to make it there a few times during the season to pick fruit. We recently went for blueberries and managed to pick quite a haul. Will, who usually does more quality control tasting than picking, even managed to pick a nice amount.
I love blueberries and often bake them up in muffins, scones, and pies. But I wanted to try a new blueberry recipe so turned to one of my favorite food blogs, Smitten Kitchen. Her post on Blueberry Boy Bait made my day (I love recipes with a story!) and the single-layer cake the recipe turned out made my boys smack their lips and ask if we picked enough to make it again and again and again. Trying to be funny, I casually said, "oh, like to infinity?" which, of course, led to a dozen questions and my feeble attempt to explain the concept of an unlimited extent of time, space, or quantity to a four and six-year old--yea, that was a fun one. I should have just left it at "it's what Buzz Lightyear says" because when I tried to simplify it by telling them "you can never get to infinity. It's as big as you can get," they responded, "then what's infinity plus one?" I made them be quiet with seconds.
I'm linking to the recipe rather than reprinting here because the only modification I made is adding in at least twice the amount of blueberries (so a generous full cup). I'll be trying it with other fruit soon.
Enjoy!
