WHAT DO YOU DO when it snows in Seattle? Make a Huckleberry Snow Cone! 

While I was out skiing around the neighborhood this morning, my daughter was busy cooking down a cup of frozen huckleberries with water and sugar, then blending it in the Vitamix. After a quick straining she had a deep red, sweet and syrupy liquid to pour over packed snowballs—a perfect treat for a no-school Snow Day.
