Where's My Pie?

Well we got our blueberries washed and dried and frozen and put into freezer bags for future enjoyment! I got 8 bags to be exact! we will sure enjoy muffins, pancakes and of course PIE over the Fall and Winter months! Nothing like a fresh Blueberry pie for Thanksgiving!
In all my excitement over posting a picture of the pie we made last week I FORGOT to snap a shot of it baked......haha It was golden brown with a crackly crispy topping oozing sweet juice over the sides! so you will just have to be enticed by this photo right before it hit the oven and make your own!
