  1. PLEASE do not bring christmas up again until after halloween :)

    that is a great photo~ even if you don't love blueberries.

    they are one of my favorite fruits...but they do have to be ripe and sweet. don't like them sour.

    guess that is true of all fruits, huh?

    have a lovely day.

  3. Okay, I used to love you totally, but now that you've admitted the bit about your feelings on blue berries, you've slipped in my esteem.

    Oh, and you can NOT scare me with that crack about Christmas. Go sit in the Boo Corner until I say you can come out.

  5. I love blueberries! But my favorite way to eat them is combined with strawberries, we have that with dinner almost every night in the summer.
    I thought about putting you in the corner for the Christmas crack, but it's true. It will be here tomorrow.

  9. Blueberries on Kashi Go Lean Crisp cereal with milk...yummy !But my favorite berry will always be the raspberry ! Best fruit in the universe !

    How dare you use the "C" word ? Too closely related to the "W" word when we are still in the sweetness of the "S" word !!!!!!

  14. that's a great photo. i just brought some blueberries home earlier this evening from the grocery. i'm going to make me a parfait like the one at McDs tomorrow. can't wait. and yes, there'll be strawberries too.

    your starfish photos in the post below are incredible. they all seem to have personality while doing their own thing. have a great night.

  15. A Christmas count down???
    Don't even start.

    You should be given a time out and made to eat blueberries.

  16. Hehe... You certainly deserve punishment for bringing up a certain subject at this time...time out with a big bowl of blueberries does seem appropriate:) I love them myself...

  17. okay you just stressed me out:)! but i am going to forgive you because your blueberry photo was so beautiful!

  18. Oh I am just like you! It's something about the jiggly texture inside a blueberry...I can't eat them on their own...but baked into muffins or pancakes...mmmmmmm.

    (here I am talking about food again!)
