So I went to the farmers' market this morning to get raspberries for jam (acquired. canned.) The berry purveyor also had (OMG) MARIONBERRIES. I couldn't help myself. I bought a flat. Made one pie. Froze another 5 pies worth of berries.
I'm so happy I can make the pie I want to eat. I've been practicing for about forty years now.

The delights of berry season are in full swing here. Here's a simple blueberry buckle recipe I tried this week.
1 ¼ c flour
1 ½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp table salt
1 can (14oz) sweetened condensed milk
½ c whole milk
8 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
10 oz blueberries
¼ c granulated sugar
Sift flour, bp, salt. Mix in milks and butter. Pour into buttered 9"x13" pan, top with berries and sugar.
Bake in
