Still in love!

.

Yeah, yeah… still the husband. Soul mate, best friend, whatever.

.

.

But today I’m talking about critters.

.

.

Whimsical…

.

.

Magical….

.

.

Absolutely adorable….

.

.

Little critters.

.

.

Yes, even the pesky red squirrel.

.

.

And the mice that make their winter nests in our garage.

.

.

The fact that these creatures are ephemeral and disappear with the first gust of wind just makes it bittersweet.

Blue Monday.

 

We’re extremely blue at Casa River.

 

 

And loving every minute of it.

 

 

Our bushes are full of ripe fruit and we can’t pick fast enough.

 

 

The neighbors get a bowl.

The postman gets a bowl.

If y’all lived closer, you’d get a bowl as well.

 

 

After picking, it was time to dig out my favorite blueberry recipes.

 

 

The coffee cake was wonderful.

 

 

Bursting with fat juicy fruit.

 

 

Unfortunately, the cobbler didn’t cobble.

 

 

The berries were so big the batter didn’t squeeze up through, but sat at the bottom and made cake instead.

Of course, now that I think about it….

 

 

There’s nothing wrong with upside down cobbler.

It still tastes fabulous.

So if you care to share your favorite recipe…. I’m all ears.

And blue fingers.

 

For Boo, as requested.
