Just Call Me Sal

I've gone strawberry picking. I've gone raspberry picking (we have a huuuuuge raspberry bush in our backyard). I have yet to go blueberry picking.

One of the things I love most about summer is the fruit it produces--namely, Blueberries. I Love Them. oh I love them.

This morning, while eating a bagel and blueberries for breakfast, I thought about two things:

a) how good Mom's fruit salad was last night (pictured left).

and

b) how if I ever went blueberry picking I would want to do it like Sal. If you have never read Blueberries For Sal you have been deprived and you must now go to the library and read this adorable book.

If I ever go blueberry picking it must be on a mountain like structure. I must wear overalls. I must have short hair. I must eat more blueberries than I pick. and I must become a bear's child.

I want to be Sal. for, I love blueberries. and so does she.

and she's just so cute!!

Read the book. Now. Go. DO. It.
