We picked blueberries in Covington, Louisiana about an hour north of New Orleans at
Ridemore Berry Farm(click on the berry farm tab). The haul was super despite the many unripe berries. From what we saw, these bushes are going to be in prime form in about a week. This farm also offered, blackberries, squash, corn, onions, figs and cucumbers you can pick yourself. Ridemore follows organic farming practices and encourages sampling!!
Our home grown tomatoes were ready to pick today when we arrived back home, too.

M. wanted a coffeecake. Because I rarely say no to a sweet treat request, i took this recipe from smittenkitten.com and made it with blueberries. After having toured a friend's recently acquired old Bakery in the Marigny today which has been repurposed as two living spaces, I thought it particularly appropriate to bake. YEA!! -- it turned out great (& super suitable for punching out a cute shape with a cookie cutter!) My cute shape was a circle.
