This picture is from earlier this fall during berry picking season. These are basically blueberries from the tundra. The kids picked them one day and we made Eskimo Ice Cream (Akutaq) the next. You mix crisco, sugar and berries and in this instance fruit cocktail to make it go farther. Sometimes they will add white fish to it. You mix by hand --- no spoon --- whipping it until it is creamy. Then you add the berries. Everyone enjoyed it.

Hey, four2Alaska, this is a great blog, but you are a great family. You are loved and missed. We are ready to make a trip back to the village.
We loved hearing about the snow-go adventure. Who would have ever believed that the oldest set of kids would be so adventerous.
Hugs to all
Grandma
