Well that pie you make me with those blueberries will be extra delicious because of the added OMG moment involved in the picking. Glad you and dogs are safe.
My friend is native and is drying the berries to make eskimo ice cream. Here is the recipe ..Well that pie you make me with those blueberries will be extra delicious because of the added OMG moment involved in the picking. Glad you and dogs are safe.
I am originally from Oregon, outside of Portland. I remember the blackberries that grew wild EVERYWHERE ! We also picked berries for spending money when I was a kid, strawberries, black berries, rasberries ....I haven't had this happen over blueberries before, but a trailer full of chicken and a cake pan outside, yes. Lets just say I am glad the Shiba was inside the trailer, and not out, since he probably would have been squished by the bear. This bear was HUGE, and I was positive he was going to eat the Shiba. Thankfully a large herd of people, and a diesel truck alarm, sent the bear on his merry way.
The Shiba, while he was in the trailer, was barking his fool head off, then as the bear was running off, tried to give chase when I took him out of the trailer. Darn dog doesn't know when to call it quits, and I hope he's never stupid enough to go after a bear on a hike.
There are a lot of blackberry bushes around here. There are enough around our property that we don't have to go out into the woods to pick them, but I still do on occasion since everyone else strips the bushes pretty quick. I do bring the Shiba when I do that, though.
A nice bear roast with a blueberry glaze might be tasty[/
HAHA ! I am not fond of the taste of bear meat unless its made into sausage or something like that .
My Grandma is Polish. I learned one thing from her cooking. Don't ask what you're eating, especially if you like it.One thing for sure, if you go to a native potlach make sure you ASK what you are eating before you try it !!
