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?
