Hi there, I’m Sophia Wren, and I believe blueberries make everything better. I’m 37, born and raised in the hills of Maine, where blueberry season is more than a time of year—it’s a tradition. I now live in a cozy cottage near Portland, surrounded by wild blueberry bushes. As a kid, I spent summers baking blueberry buckle with my grandmother, who always said, “Blueberries remind us to savor the sweet and the tart.”
After culinary school in Vermont, I cooked everywhere from diners to bistros, always adding a blueberry twist. Now, I run a small test kitchen at home, creating blueberry recipes for everyone—from home bakers to pro chefs. I’ve crafted blueberry chili jam, smoked BBQ glaze, and even a blueberry miso sauce that’s amazing on grilled salmon. Not every idea sticks—blueberry aioli, for example—but I embrace the flops as part of the journey.
What keeps me inspired is the community. Whether it’s a kid loving their first blueberry pancake or a chef perfecting blueberry mole, it’s the joy we share that keeps my kitchen buzzing. Let’s cook!
