Blueberries are one of the best little berries around. Easy to grow and on a cute bush too. You can use them in your landscape for a nice green bush with great fall color, in a planter close to the house for extra easy access or you can plant them in your garden.As I run across unique or extra yummy sounding recipes I will be sure and post them here to share. But if you have a favorite blueberry recipe please feel free to share it with everyone!

This is from the Rustic Kitchen blog Janine is based in the Chicago area. Would it not be wonderful to take a cooking class from her? They start with a trip to the local produce stand and cook with whatever is in season! I found her blog just this year and really enjoy it.
