Blueberry Pie on Mother's day

Annual Mother's day and my mother is away in the swiss alps. Anyway now I got this delicious cake for myself and my brother with his girlfriend who came over for a cup of coffee. Unfortunatly the weather is pretty windy and not really warm to be outside, too bad. My sister went for grilling in the forest area.

I bought the blueberries not knowing someone would come over, but when my brother called and asked if they could come over I just that idea what I could do instead with the blueberries (first I wanted to make a jam). I like fruitpie more than cakes, can't tell you why it's just fruitier.
This pie is pretty easy and so fast done, ingredible. My mother would have loved the pie. Well mother's day not the only day you can bake something for your mother. Always show her your love throught the year. It means more than just on one day during the year!!
