Thank you to everyone who came to or even wanted to come to, - but couldn't make it to my Grandmother's Wake and Funeral.On behalf of myself - I wish everyone that has a blueberry pancake or a blueberry muffin to remember that sometimes being blue isnt necessarily a bad thing! I say this because one of my happiest and fondest memories of her was when we were children, she made these for us everytime my brother and I would pick the blueberries from around the cottage in Plymouth. Those were great times! Thanks and lot's of love to all........Jimmy
