Blueberry picking

Hello dears,

I went to pick blueberries in Nuuksio national park today. It was absolutely fantastic weather to go pick berries and in general be outside. Not too hot and sunny. Well at least when I was in Nuuksio. It rained when I was coming back home.

Last week when I went to Nuuksio with my sister and my niece I found a good spot to pick berries. So today I went there to pick berries. It took about 2 hours to pick 3 liters of blueberries. I don't have a clue is it long time to pick 3 liters of berries but I really did enjoyed it.

3 liters of blueberries

I wish I would have had a bigger bucket. I just have to go again in Nuuksio to pick another 3 liters of berries, but that can wait. At least couple weeks. It was quite tiring to walk around the national park wellies on my feet. But it was worth it. I also found a few chanterelles and forest strawberries. Since I didn't found many chanterelles I gonna make a yummy omelette of the mushrooms I found today. 

The catch of the day

When I got back home I cleaned the blueberries. I took 3dl of them away for a blueberry pie. rest of the berries I put on the freezer so I will have berries for winter. My wild guess is that before the winter comes I have ate all the blueberries...

Blueberries are ready to go in the freezer



When I was cleaned the berries I made a blueberry pie. I must say it's damn good ( I'm eating it while I write this blog update ;) )

The pie is ready!

Now I need to rest a bit. I feel really tired coz lots of walking in middle of nowhere, or maybe it's the sauna that makes me feel tired. Anyhow, till next time!
