Alabama Blueberries

For food-centered folks, the seasons are not so much about the weather…they’re about what’s good to eat! Whether it’s Florida lobster season, oyster season, or tomato season, my calendar is all about the food! And right now it’s blueberry season in Alabama, and seeing those beautiful berries in all their glory reminds me of all the bright and delicious produce we are blessed with in the Gulf Coastal South.

Alabama BlueberriesThe Almond Blueberry Bread Pudding in GUMBO LOVE is a supremely tasty way to enjoy the berries, and if you happen to be around my home stomping grounds, go see my friends at Weeks Bay Plantation in Fairhope on one of their picking days and pick some of your own blue lovelies.

Warning: they may not make it to your bread pudding! They’re absolutely addictive all on their own.
