Blueberries


Here is my attempt at buying produce at the local level. My freezer is already full of strawberries from the local farm. Today I will add blueberries. These will make some nice smoothies this winter!
Today is also the blueberry festival in Burgaw. I'd like to go, but maybe next year.
I've got to start looking harder for local produce. They rarely sell locally at our grocery stores. The produce market only runs on Saturdays, and 20 miles away on Wednesdays. There are a few old stores that have been converted into small produce markets, but even their produce often comes from far away. It shouldn't be so difficult to eat from our local area. Seafood is no problem, that's for sure.
Well, maybe I can start trying to live on seafood and smoothies. Now, there's a thought.

Brenda,
You better make smoothies from guacamole to raise your hdl if you're going to eat a lot of shellfish! :-)
