Blueberry pickin'

We're back to Texas and back on the busy train. Wrapped up the blueberry/recipe column, which has the above video to go with it.

That Jessilyn Akin, she's a wonder. After we did our interview and were just catching up on what keeps us busy these days, she said to me, "Ed would be proud," referring to my grandfather, under whom she worked as a teacher for many years. Brought tears to my eyes and joy to my heart to feel his loving gaze upon me, picking blueberries with the most important women in my life (GaGa, my mom, Rachel, Rachel's mom Susan and Erin) and doing a bit of work with a blueberry farmer he also had much respect for.

More on the road trip later...
