I grew up eating Blueberry turnovers and now I can't find them in the grocery stores. All the other flavors are available. I live in Northern CA. Has anybody out there seem them in CA?

LOL...no, but buy fozen Puff Pastry, NOT phyllo/filo dough. In a pinch, phyllo will work but it's a pain to mess with.

Buy canned blueberry pie filling. Pre heat oven to about 375. Cut thawed dough into 6-8" squares and brush with melted butter. Add a dollop of pie filling, fold corner to corner to make a triangle. Seal with fingers and water if necessary. Crimp well. Brush top with melted butter.

Bake on a non stick or lightly greased sheet until just golden, about 10 mins.

It has long been a secret, but Pepperidge Farm was actually a training camp for terrorists. Known as "Base PF" it was shut down about five years back in a very hush-hush operation by the BATF and the US Marines. Whatever you eat now that has the PF label, you can be assured that the profits don't go to subvert The American Way Of Life.

Blueberries have gotten expensive lately. This year I bought a large bag of berries at the grocery store for $10 that last year would have cost me $7 or $8. Maybe they've discontinued them because of the marketplace price?

I seem to find them every 10 years. Why, I don't know. But they are the very best Blueberry Turnover ever. Me and my Mom would go to every grocery store and buy all the had. Still wishing I will find them again. Come on give the people what they want. I will buy them all, And yes, I tell my friends they are the BEST.

Damn. Don't want to start any Cornish civil wars, so I'd better give honourable mentions to Ann' s Pasties on the Lizard and the Chough Bakery pasties in Padstow. Do not even think of buying a pasty in Devon. They're not proper.

Warrens Bakery in Newquay, or used to be. Also a great Pastie place in Fowey but I forget the name of it .
I make Rasberry turnovers, dead easy. Maybe try doing your own. just a suggestion.

Warrens has a good name too, I admit. I like my pasties nice and peppery, with chunks of skirt, not minced meat. And no bloody carrots. Swede, onion, potato pieces and meat only. And crimped on the side, not along the top. Pastry should be shortcrust, but I have eaten a decent pasty with flaky before now. He ducks...

Lizard village, on The Lizard Peninsula, from where Marconi first sent his radio signal into darkest yankeedom. The most southerly point of the UK. Beautiful it is too. Swede is the same as rutabaga or yellow turnip or neep, Brassica napus var. napobrassica. Not really a turnip, not to me it isn't.

Marconi's first message did not go within a thousand miles of " darkest yankeedom" ! it went to Newfoundland, Canada.

Ach, dammit, you all look the same to me! Anyway, it's just that you haven't invaded it yet. ;-)

There's a local Pepperidge Farm bakery surplus store that sells bread for a buck a loaf. I usually buy a loaf or two of their whole wheat "Swirl" cinnamon-raisin bread, but they didn't have any today so I got a loaf of banana-chocolate "Swirl" on a whim. Tried a piece... Yuck! At least I didn't pay the full $3.00 supermarket price for it. My step-daughter's ducks will probably love it.

Bad news, BWL. Bread is bad for ducks.

Here's a link to just one of many web pages about that - from the Royal Society for the Preservation of Birds, no less.

Would the bread taste okay if toasted or perhaps buttered and warmed till crisp in a 275-degree oven?

Debbie: maybe all of the 2015 blueberry crop has been consumed.
