Blueberry season — pie, crisp and ice drinks

I’m not a big fan of blueberries, so when my husband and eldest decided to go blueberry picking over the weekend, I sent them off with secret hopes they were too late for a good harvest.
They brought back two nice containers of fruit, one of which immediately got washed and frozen and the other sent my amateur cook to the recipe box.
I was working on Saturday, so I only heard about this on Sunday morning. She had made her usual, blueberry crisp, and I got a small piece when I got home at night (very good, especially with whipped cream). But she was looking toward new horizons, apparently.
“I want something different,” she told me Sunday morning. “Not blueberry muffins because we always make those. Maybe something that isn’t baked.”
Well, there are the usual fruit-mixed-with-ice-and-a-little-milk drinks, for which we picked up some strawberries and bananas from the grocery store to add to the blueberries. And I had suggested making an angel food cake and making a sauce out of the berries. And there was always pie. We add fresh blueberries to the traditional Sunday pancake breakfast.
But we had very little luck in the cookbooks looking for a blueberry recipe with a little pizzaz. So anyone with a suggestion would get our undying appreciation.
