SOUR CREAM BLUEBERRY PIE

I randomly saw a friend while out and about one day, walking around the Fayetteville Square, and we started talking about food.
She told me about the Maine blueberries for sale at Ozark Natural Foods - and how amazing they are, small and flavorful. I promptly bought myself a package to experience them for myself,  and now I keep them in stock in the freezer - and always think of my friend when I use them.
