I haven't been able to find the blueberry glaze mix in the store for a while. The "Muskoka" caught my eye so I had to try it out of simple allegiance. I was not disappointed. The lemon gave it added freshness and the liqueur gave it more depth than a mix could ever give. The rest of the family loved it and can't wait for me to make it again. I guess I'll be stopping for blueberries again this week!!

I am in my second year of retirement and thoroughly enjoying it. My husband Ron and I have been married for 28 years and are the proud parents of 2 sons in their 20's. We have lived in Barrie, a growing city on the shores of Lake Simcoe in Ontario, for 30 years and have no plans to move anytime in the near future. Obviously, we like it here!

<br>I like to try different recipes and have found Receipzaar a great resource. Reading the reviews that others cooks have posted has also helped me become a little more adventurous in making adaptations myself. I have always been a bit of a slave to the written recipe and now find myself incorporating other suggestions and even making a few of my own modifications.
