Wild berries

We came to Alaska before during springtime. It's nice to be here in the fall to pick all of the wild berries. Its great; they grow everywhere! You can go for a walk and have a snack on the way. The blueberries are very tasty and the red/orange/yellow berries called salmon berries. They have a very mild flavor, but they are good.


Melinda picked all of these berries in the wild area just behind my parent's house. We've put them to good culinary use. So far we've made (or I should say Melinda has made):
  • Blueberry muffins
  • Blueberry pancakes
  • Blueberry pie
  • Salmon berry/blueberry smoothies
  • Blueberry corn muffins
  • Mixed berry shortcake
Tasty!
