The beginning of September is berry-picking time. The red berries are tyttebaer (aka lingon berries), and the blue are ... blueberries. We didn't actually pick the tyttebaer--Mike got a kilo for 10 kroner (which is like free to a good home!), and so we just had to wash and sort out some stems and a few leaves, and add sugar. Tyttebaer makes a great accompaniament to meat--especially good with the Norwegian meatballs that Mike makes. So now we have a few containers of tyttebaer in the freezer. We did actually pick the blueberries in the woods near the ski path. It was fun. We mixed those with sugar too, and had them with ice cream.
