here's my little blueberry story: in 1988, i was diagnosed with MS. my neurologist warned me that people would come out of the woodwork with remedies for a cure. my boyfriend at the time heard on some radio talk show that blueberries could cure MS. he stopped at the grocery store & bought every blueberry product the store had. i had muffin mix, blueberry soda, pie filling - everything including fresh & frozen blueberries. he had asked the store to show him every blueberry product they had. now he knew it wasn't a cure, but he said "just in case." how could you not love a man that would do that?
Knew we couldn't go long without a blueberry lemon combo. I think I could almost smell this when you showed it fresh from the oven. I'd love having this for breakfast.

The Native American Indians . Call Blueberries Star Fruit 🫐 . Because The Bottom Of The Blueberries 🫐. Looks like A Star ⭐ . Your lemon 🍋 Blueberry🫐 loaf looks Delicious . Thanks For Sharing The Recipe.
Blueberries are my favorite next to pineapple. I am Ojibway native american of Ont. Canada. As a child, i would climb up the hills and pick blueberries for hours. Starberries is another name. Blueberry dumplings my grandma would make way back when i was a child also. Love the blueberry episodes yum 😋
I know the dumplings were the big fluffy ones n not flat. Made her own homemade blueberry sauce with whole berries in it as well in which she would simmer in. I'm talking like 50 yrs ago. But i still remember how they tasted n how delicious they were. I will have to ask my mom, I'm sure she would know. ❤
I’m loving these blueberry recipes, and I love quick breads, so I can’t wait to make this. And Tom, I share your love for learning. I think if we aren’t learning, we aren’t living. And I don’t mind being called a nerd. lol The truth is, the nerds ARE the cool kids!
Hello Tom & Melissa - this looks to be a great recipe. Thank you for sharing these recipes with everyone. Have a great time with the ladies scrapbooking Melissa… 👏👏👏💕🌻
We live in the beautiful state of Maine. I've made many blueberry recipes and I can't wait to make this one. Thank you Tom & Melissa. My husband and I enjoy watching each and every one of your videos.
I enjoy your channel so much. I love being taught and I wholeheartedly love that we get to watch you and know you through your recipes. Thank you for doing this.
I just put up 30# of blueberries. I make 6 pints of canned and the rest I froze to use during the winter. We have a great blueberry farm not far from our house.
As my grandson would say, this recipe is the bomb diggity. The yogurt and the lemon syrup bring it over the top. Yummy yum yum yum. Lemon and blueberry are the perfect combo.
We agree with your grandson. The "bomb diggity." I have a new term for my vocabulary! My own kids will probably roll their eyes when I say that, so I'll need to try it out on them for sure! 😊
The native Americans call blueberries star berries.❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love this recipe and I can’t wait to make it. I love all your recipes. You just have the best recipes and you make them so simple and so easy and I’ve made quite a few of them. I just don’t comment very often. Just want to let you know I do appreciate you.
Tom and Melissa. My neighbor recently gave me a tomato pie. Tomatos are ready for picking in my area. I love tomato sandwiches but I wondered, besides canning if there were other recipes for tomatos. I love your channel.❤❤❤❤
Love this recipe. The cake reminds me a bit like a “Van Gogh” cake I grew up with. It is done with pudding and a cake mix. It is the cake of choice to bring when we are invited to someone’s home. I am going to make this loaf cake this week. Even though it is make a little different I am sure it will taste just as good. I might put a little glaze on the bottom of the cake also. Yum!!! Thank you for your series. No matter what you are cooking it is a pleasure to watch the teacher in both of you come out.😀
I answered your question from yesterday and got the State of Maine for the wild blueberries but had no clue which state produces the cultivated blue berries. I am embarrassed to say - as I sit in my home which is located in the State of Washington - lol - that it's where I currently live. You learn something new everyday. Love your show and your recipes.
I was making this recipe for my mother-in-law. She lives in an assisted living facility. So I made muffins and put sanding sugar on top. I used small blueberries. They are fabulous!
I'm so glad you made this into muffins for her! The sugar on top would give them a little crunch and I'm sure that was delicious. We love that you are part of our channel. Thank you for joining us at the table.
I live in Maine. Raking blueberries was my summer job. Wild blueberries are much smaller than cultivated blueberries. Love your series. Keep them coming😊
This sounds so good! I don't think I've ever had anything lemon/blueberry, do this will be a great start. I love pretty much anything blueberry! Thanks you two!
Hello to you both from Atlantic Canada!!! I live on an Island, called; Prince Edward Island. My Fiance and I love your channel !!!! Here is what I found for your trivia question !!! n. Native Americans called blueberries “star berries” because the blossom end of each berry - the calyx - forms a perfect fivepointed star. The Great Spirit was said to have sent “star berries” to ease the children’s hunger during a famine. And according to legend, Native Americans gave blueberries to the pilgrims to help them make it through their first winter. Native Americans dried blueberries in the sun and added them whole to soups, stews and meat, and crushed them into a powder to use on meat as a preservative.
I don't think Tom saw me sneak a couple blueberries, pop them in my mouth before he put flour on them in the bowl. Thanks for covering for me Melissa. Haha. This looks wonderful. God bless from wyoming
Hello Tom And Melissa. I "cheated" and looked up the answer. They were called star berries. Thanks for all the other information or trivia. You never get out of teacher mode. Lol. Keep being you and always offering Melissa the first "princess" bite. Be Blessed.
