blueberries

This month, according to my Old Farmer's Almanac calendar, is National Blueberry Month.  I'm not sure what makes a blueberry 'national' but I'm all for celebrating blueberries.  According to the calendar blueberries are good for you which is good news because I eat lots of them, especially this time of year.  While I can eat blueberries raw I find they are very good wrapped. I particularly like them wrapped in a bowl of ice cream although pancakes and muffins are also great ways to contain a blueberry.  It seems to me, though, that, since this is July, when we celebrate the red, white and blue, that it ought to be National Blueberry, Strawberry and Vanilla Ice Cream month.  Doesn't that sound patriotic?
