I completely understand the benefits of blueberries but they just don't taste of anything to me so I never choose them. I much prefer strawberries lolLife gets in the way...PADding is addictive...Saving's better than spending...My savings diary - Now for a healthier, wealthier me2026 1p challenge #7 | Cash envelope challenge #01 | SPC #017EF £1000/£1000 | Sabbatical £4520/£60001
