It's the Blueberries Picking Season!


Despite having to deal with our conflict with our nasty neighbour over the last 2 weeks, we still managed to go out on 2 consecutive Sundays for some blueberry picking. We definitely won't miss the activity since it is our last chance here to pick Ry's favourite fruit. Initially, we thought we'll just do the activity for fun and did not expect great picking conditions since this July was the rainiest summer month for Boston in the last 10 years. To our surprise during our first visit at Parlee Farm, we saw big ripe blueberries and they tasted really sweet. Some of the biggest berries were only slightly smaller than a SG twenty cent coin compared to the usual tiny ones we see being sold in the supermarkets.

We enjoyed the two boxes of berries so much that we decided to go back again the following Sunday and this time round, we pick 4 boxes and till now, we are still enjoying our hand-picked blueberries every evening after dinner.
