Great Banner, Margaret. Love blueberries

Ann, I thought you liked blueberries! I never have found the ones that I'm supposed to have growing here. Fine by me, but Mark sure did want some blueberry cobbler!

I knew that was your photo before I checked the "by" line. Yum Yum Yum!
Edit to add: are those wild blueberries or a specific variety that you grew or from the fresh produce sales?

No, blueberries just don't turn me on. And I'm a fruit nut! Just never have cared for blueberries; I can take 'em or leave 'em. I think they're very pretty though.

Wow, thanks everyone for the great comments and all of the thumbs!

Joanne, blueberries don't grow well here, they were BC grown organic, best way to eat them is a quick wash, dry them off, pop them in your mouth.

REALLY??? I can't imagine…Nor have I ever known of anyone that does not like blueberries!

I guess that the old saying is true…You learn something new every day!

We have wild blueberries at our farm, but this year there were next to none. They may have had a late spring frost. Last year there were lots. I love them and the wild ones are packed with flavor. Hard to pick though, since they are small. I will post a pic of the wild ones shortly.

The lady next door had lots of them, so I don't think there really are any on our property. It's possible that the deer got them, if they even eat them, but I think I would have found at least one!

I'll just enjoy them in this beautiful banner. Sure beats having to eat one!
