  1. Our 8 bushes have yielded a lot of berries this summer and we would like
    a suggestion for ways to enjoy some of them now so that we don't have
    to freeze them all. We usually make blueberry pie and blueberry
    muffins, but would appreciate another suggestion that uses a bunch of
    blueberries.

    I like a thing that I call "kind of trifle" because it's not exactly
    like the trifle that I've had from other folks. I layer lady fingers
    (or sponge cake if I have some), Bird's custard, unsweetened whipped
    cream (whip it myself), any kind of berries, and sauce made with the
    same berries. I think this would be excellent with just lots of
    blueberries. I usually use a combination of raspberries, blackberries,
    and strawberries, sometimes with some blueberries thrown in.

    Haven't made this in a long time. May give it a shot later this week.

    I posted this to an earlier inquiry, but will post it again because it uses
    Lots (aka bunch) of blueberries. Fresh berries work just as well as frozen
    in this recipe.

    Blueberry smoothie!

    Plain yogurt, blueberries, apple juice -- whirrr and drink.

    It's good if you make the apple juice into frozen cubes first. Then when you
    blend it the smoothie has an icy consistency.

    Oh yeah. Blueberries soaked in framboise and some sugar. It's even good for
    breakfast :-D

    Blueberry Cobbler is a favorite around here...and, of course, jam. I
    even tossed them into a pasta salad dressed with a lemon vinagrette
    last week. Earned a surprised look from my husband(who was expecting
    an olive), but he had to admit it was good.

  12. Fully ripe blueberries in a bowl. Add room temperature whipping cream
    straight or whipped with vanilla and white sugar. Possible additions could
    include maple syrup, exotic booze etc. I am jealous.The rats and the robins
    got my crop this year. Every time this hard working farmer would approach
    his blueberry patch, a chorus of squawking and [censored] would emanate from
    the surrounding bushes and trees. The culprits were robins, cedar waxwings,
    white capped sparrows, mice, voles, moles, chipmunks, squirrels, coons and
    other bandits.
