...including on Mount Washington!

From email I just read:

"Things are really heating up on Mount Washington—and I’m not just talking about the weather! While it has been unseasonably warm and muggy for the last week or so (including a new record high of 69 degrees on the 8th)..."

July 8th. Record high: 69 degrees.

Why is it I'm hoping to head 140 miles south rather than 225 miles north this weekend? We're just starting another heatwave. Mount Washington sounds like just the place to be.

"Unseasonably warm..."

"New record high of 69..."

Bliss.

Even though I was born more than half a century before Blueberry Girl was published, I had the most excellent fortune to grow up being granted all of the appeals and gifts in Neil's poem.

Tonight, though, I'm a girl with blueberries and I need some ideas of what to do with them.

I'm talking 4 pints worth. Not enough for jam, but more than I'm likely to eat in a fruit salad. I also have 3 kiwis, and 4 peaches that want some ripening. The sale prices were that good.

At the very least, I can freeze the blueberries. That would work well for later baked goods, pancakes, and waffles, though I hardly ever make pancakes or waffles.

I do think I'll make up a bowl of fruit salad -- blueberries, kiwis, and peaches sounds yummy and if it stops raining long enough tomorrow, I can probably add some fresh black raspberries and maybe even some blackberries to the bowl.

What else?
