Wow, what do you guys do with so many berries? You and Lisa must either sell them or have really, really blue mouths.

Fwiw, at stores in Phoenix like Wild Oats and Trader Joe's, blueberries are sinfully expensive. And if organic, phew! Like four to five bucks for a tiny little box that any of us could inhale in five minutes. Part of the reason is no doubt because blueberries are now touted as being high in antioxidants.

Gloria, are you in Zone 5b?
