Did you think it was beauty related? Sorry to disappoint 😛

These are fresh blueberries to satiate my berry cravings. Plus they are high in Vitamins and antioxidants and delicious to boot! 😀

      And when you can it costs a bomb right? It used to be that way too here but lately I’ve been seeing cherries and blueberries at the local pasar malam. Cherries are still pricey but I couldn’t resist these blueberries!

      Same! I love all berries and all stone fruit – they had apricots too at only RM10 but I didn’t buy. I go to the Bangsar pasar malam on Sundays 😀

    Can’t wait till it’s blueberry season again, it should very soon! 🙂 I still have 1kg frozen ones in my freezer. Bought them last summer and they’re still… ‘fresh’. Haha.

        I bought 3kg 😀 I’ve made blueberry jam, blueberry sauce for pancakes, blueberry muffins…. I remember paying something around 7EUR – that’s like RM32 at that time! When they’re not in season, you can still find them in the supermarket, 250g for 4EUR. Not cheap at all.

          ahh…. I want to make all that too! I’d probably have to make do with er… mango jam, sauce etc? 😉 Fruits that aren’t in season are never worth eating, but when they are… gorge away! 😀

            I agree. Make the blueberry syrup for pancakes. The floral (surprising yes?) smells coming out from your pot is heavenly. About 1 cup of berries, 1/2 cup sugar and just enough water to cover it all in a pot. Simmer till the berries pop/soften. Eat hot. If u’ve had enough of syrup and there’s left over, pop it into the fridge and you’ll get blueberry jam. =)

    I buy blueberries when I want a change away from grapes. haha, but I don’t specially make sure I eat it regularly, though I do try to maintain my intake of anti-oxidant rich foods or green tea. =))

    I am not sure if it’s because there is air-con in my rented place in M’sia, but my skin is becoming so nice!!

    Laugh lines greatly reduced and my father commented on a pink glow when I fly back.

    But I feel it may be the slightly different lifestyle of having the choice to eat better foods, since I do the grocery myself. :P:P:P
