Or Cal. Or some other pal. Really, these blueberries are for anyone. It might be grey and gloomy and wet out (why the heck did I think it was a good idea to run at the beach today? Holy Hurricane Bobby!), but it’s Farmers Market…

Today: Brighten up.
When I was a sprightly, more youthful twenty-something (I am officially over the hill when it comes to the twenties), I worked in a little state by the name of Rhode Island. It’s not actually an island, and I wouldn’t exactly qualify the state’s leadership…
