| Here's what 10 lbs of blueberries looks like! |
The kids and I went and visited our local blueberry farm this morning bright and early! It opened today as a pre-pick day since they had so many already ready, but the regular season actually starts next Saturday. We got 10 lbs for $12.50. I'm so excited....My hubby loves blueberries and they are actually something he can eat. He can't have phosphorus or potassium due to his medical condition, so it really limits what fruits/veggies (and food for that matter) I can bring into the house because if he likes it, he will eat it regardless! LOL I think I'm going to make homemade blueberry pancakes tomorrow morning for Father's Day and a blueberry cobbler for later during the day! Blueberries are so yummy and so good for you!
Here's some nutritional information. It only took about 45 minutes today to get that much!
So, if we add this 12.50 to my totals from my
groceries this week, we have 42.80 TOTAL out of pocket to feed my family of 5. Not bad! :)
Also, I wanted to mention that a pint of dry blueberries from the grocery store weighs about 12 oz. The cheapest in my area you can find that at is 1.99. So, 10 lbs of blueberries from the grocery store would cost me about 26.00. So, this was a savings of 13.50 or 52%. Not too bad for fresh produce!
