Long before they became “healthy correct,” we knew that we loved blueberries. Hubby’s dad lived near a blueberry farm years ago, and we often got our pick of the harvest. We would literally pick them by the bagsful (that would be garbage bags BTW). We were lucky.
Unfortunately, Hubby’s dad passed away several years ago and the blueberry farm went by the wayside. The farmer couldn’t hire pickers, if you can believe that!
I miss that abundance. However, we are fortunate to be able to enjoy blueberries pretty much year round in our area. I’ll take what I can get.

We have two more days in this school term…I want to brag. Our summary test scores came in today, and our kids did an outstanding job. They exceeded the state average in EVERY area and went way beyond in most. That’s good news to a teacher’s ears. Thanks guys!
