 We will continue to be without internet until friday because the service person needed access to some kind of internet closet on the property that maintenance will have to open. Jade is Very Mad.

I've decided to use this week as an opportunity to get things done. My goals are: clean my room, use up some things in the freezer. I have a lot of blueberries so I want to use up one gallon of blueberries. I currently have three, all from last year. I'm going to start with muffins i think and then maybe scones that I can freeze. I'm not super fond of fruit pies but maybe combined with something or as a turnover idek. Any ideas?

Well, I may experiment this week, I remembered I have a roll of gluten free phyllo dough, so I might give some kind of blueberry pastry a try. And maybe I'll make some pie when you get it. It's just. So many blueberries (sidenote, I like to call blueberries bloobs, it sounds funny)

I'm going to check out the market tomorrow :) if it's happening already

Ha, you don't have to actually make me a pie. I was just being put-out by how much of my mother's attention is taken up with the whims of grandchildren instead of the whims of me, anymore. (Though, the oldest boy has taught himself to bake pies because he likes pies so much, which I'm rather impressed by-- he's 11 and does a creditable pie crust from scratch.)

We always call blueberries bloobs and in fact the frozen quart bags we put away into the freezer (and have probably mostly already used, by now, as well) are all labeled "BLOOB". And the strawberries are labeled "STRAWB", because my sister thinks that's funny.

The market is happening tomorrow, they posted a list of vendors! It's not super many but I think it's already some new ones, so that's interesting.

Got some fruit at the market! Not busy but who knows what will change.

I mean, I have three gallons of blueberries and the urge to do something.... but I'll see how much I can get through in the next week or two. My little chest freezer is so full of things, I need to use stuff up somehow....
