I’m having a blueberry celebration here as following my recent blueberry blues (over my lack of blueberries, involving chickens and an erroneous store ad) I was gifted with a few pints of blueberries–enough to make the Blueberry-Lime Jam I was hankering after as well as filling for one pie. Yay! See? Whining is productive!
Hopefully, you have blueberries and all the other berries you need and are having a happy, not whiny, Fourth, but if you don’t have a BBB, feel free to whine–and enter to win one!
It’s a Ball Blue Book Project day! Today’s Ball Blue Book is sponsored by CB in TN!
For a chance to win: Leave a comment on this post and let me know you want it. You can just put (BBB) at the end of your comment or otherwise note that you want to be in the draw. One winner will be drawn by random comment number to receive a Ball Blue Book. Eligible entry cut-off is midnight Eastern (U.S.) time tonight (July 4). This post will be updated with the winner by 9 a.m. Eastern (U.S.) time tomorrow (July 5). Return to this post to claim your book if your name is drawn (or check the BBB Winners List).
Find out more about the Ball Blue Book Project and become a sponsor.

Inquiring minds want to know, would you recommend we all make the Blueberry-Lime Jam recipe? Is it a favorite or just a one time fling?

I like jelly, jam, etc. Not such a big fan of blueberries. But then dd is VERY allergic to them – gives her a migraine for several days. She will actually get a migraine if someone has eaten blueberries then even breaths on her. (like a girl at school did).
