Last Saturday we went berry picking at Driediger Farms in Langley. Â We picked strawberries, which were really close to being at the end of their season, and raspberries, which are just at the beginning of their season. Â We also grabbed four pounds of blueberries; already picked… we must have come home with almost 15 pounds of berries for about $21. Â It was quite hot, I might have given myself heat stroke and a strangely shaped burn on my back, but the berries were delicious!
We made the trip extra worthwhile by stopping by A Bread Affair and picking up my favourite bread (The 100-Mile = organic, blueberries, hazelnuts – YUMMY). Â I never rave about anyone else’s baking so that is saying something!
I immediately made this with the strawberries:
Which when cooked and half-eaten looks like this:
I am currently cooking down the remaining blueberries and raspberries to make another bar. Â Will post pictures and the full recipe later on today.
