I made blueberry muffins this AM :D Mine were dried off rather than sparkling with water, though.

I was thinking of making blueberry-corn muffins with these -- that's cornbread with blueberries in it, my favorite kind of muffin.

I picked 15 pounds of blueberries (to get the bulk discount) and froze most of them. I washed and then dried them with a towel before they went into the freezer. Oddly, I have no idea how my muffin recipe would work with fresh berries: I always use frozen.

1 c flour
1 c yellow cornmeal
1/3 c sugar
pinch salt
1 egg
1/4 c melted butter
3/4 c milk
1 generous cup frozen blueberries

Preheat oven, 425. Bake 20 minutes. Makes about 8 muffins.

I think a cup of fresh berries in that will work fine. They burst and the whole muffin is blueberry goodness. I'd up the sugar to a half cup, though.

Yum! I always burn my tongue on the blueberries. :)

The blueberries are amassing! They're coming for us!

(Muffin would eat them all. She could happily live on blueberries if we let her.)

Ah, continuing the theme of putting blueberries in muffins! :D

A NY Times cookbook had a muffin recipe I like for Thanksgiving with 4 American foods: pumpkin, cornmeal, blueberries, and maple syrup.

I often have the urge to call blueberries "blibbleberries". Is it just me?

It depends: did you make that up, or did you read it somewhere? If the former, then yes; if the latter, then probably not.

I think it was something my brother and I came up with when we were young, but I don't really know.

Ah, I sense a pattern! ;)
