An easy recipe for blueberry hand pies… (Plus awesome DIY flower crowns!)
We had an artful day today, filled with garden happiness, DIY flower crowns, and yummy, kid-made blueberry hand pies.
First, the girls made flower crowns with brown paper and sticky duct tape, an idea from the lovelyMaya*Made.
Then we baked delicious blueberry hand pies inspired byAngry Chicken(从,使用常规的派皮配方Amy’s cheat sheet) and filled with a simple and tasty blueberry filling.
And then the girls wore their flower crowns and ate the blueberry hand pies. Yum!
Just about a perfect day all around.
And then there was some weaving withthe garden loom that Harry made in the backyard. They added fabric scraps, ribbons, and flowers.
