Don't you love the hand in mouth?
So I have a new favorite. After hearing a friend rave about Greek yogurt I decided to give it a try. I'm not a yogurt fan by far, but I had to admit that this new Greek yogurt was thicker that regular yogurt and very good. I tried the blueberry and carmel kinds and like both. The plain was a bit too tart for me but I added some of my homemade strawberry jam and it was great! You'll have to give it a try. I highly recommend it.
OK. So it's Blueberry season here and there is the cutest little blueberry patch just up the road from us, about 15 minutes away.
It's literally in the back of someone's yard. It's the Honor System which is one of the things I love about NC.
Any did you see the sign. $1 a quart!!!!!! I've been there twice since last Thursday.
The berries are soooo good and I usually go at 8am so it's before the heat.
So this morning I did a batch of Blueberry Jam. My other New Favorite
and this afternoon I did some blueberry muffins. A great recipe my sister added to out cookbook that is very healthy. Here it is for your enjoyment.
