Yup, Pinetree Garden Seeds aka superseeds.com

I was trying to find a place East of the Mississippi that sold both types of cukes I wanted to grow & they had both. Same thing they said about the kale attracted me too - they liked the name, then liked it when they grew it. I liked the name so added a pack of seeds to the order.

This is not a cooking thread, but I just put a no-bake cheesecake in the fridge & whipped up a batch of Wild Blueberry Syrup for a topping. It’s for my mom’s birthday tomorrow - she’ll be 89. No-bake cheesecake tends to be a bit ‘soft’, but this recipe is fairly stiff before going in the fridge so it should slice nicely tomorrow evening. I swapped out the sugar for Swerve granulated so it’s low carb enough that my brother & I can eat it.

The wild blueberry syrup ... well, I hope it makes it to tomorrow. I could eat the whole pot right now! There is nothing like wild blueberries for taste, IMO. When I was hiking, there were certain trails where the wild blueberries were thick at a certain time of the year - you could walk along, picking as you go, & eat yourself silly ... have a plastic container & pick some for later. The only thing was that bears like them too .... I never ran into one in a blueberry patch, but I did run into one (with cubs!) in a blackberry patch ... ‘exciting’ for sure!

Pinetree has good sales, too - so get on their e-mail list if you aren’t already.

Blueberries are Beau’s favorite fruit. When he was in Alaska hunting Moose two years ago, he ate his weight in wild blueberries so he’s been off of them lately. ;)

Message me your cheesecake recipe when you get around to it, Please! I’d like a ‘sturdy’ no-bake recipe. Thanks! :)
