Blueberry Withdrawl
Anyone who knows me well is very aware of my addiction/love of blueberries. On an average summer day I will consume anywhere from 1-3 pounds of blueberries. Nate Schuur thinks this is ridiculous. From late May until August blueberries become my meal of choice, typically either replacing or seriously supplementing all breakfast and dinner foods, and sometimes lunch as well. Often I end the day with a bowl of blueberries as dessert. I love blueberries. They are my favorite food, and if I were stranded on a desert island and had to pick only one food to eat for every meal for the rest of my life I would hands down choose blueberries. My dad often jokes that it is a medical miracle that I haven't turned blue. That said, I am now going through blueberry withdrawal. It has been 2 weeks to the day since I last had a blueberry. I have scoured central london (I tried 5 different fruit stands) to find blueberries, only to find one source for my blueberry fix, but that one source was too expensive to justify the expense (until I get a bank account). So I have gone without blueberries. Its tragic.
