Blueberry pie filling

I'm working my way through the 7# of blueberries that we bought at the Farmer's Market on Sunday. (they're in the red/green basket of the last post) They're not local - apparantly blueberries don't grow that well in Colorado. (Which is okay - I'm repeatedly amazed at the variety of fruit and veggies that do grow well here!) They're from Oregon though, which apparantly is a great place for blueberries to grow and be happy.

I canned 7 half-pint jars of blueberry jam/jelly on Sunday, and tonight I'm going to freeze a few batches of blueberry pie filling with the remainder of the berries. Jon's excited about the future pies! =)
