Blueberry for sale

OK, this has bugged me for years. The handpainted signs outside farms that proclaim "blueberry for sale". Yes, that is correct. Blueberry singular. If you want to buy one blueberry then this is the place to shop.

I have no problem with the handpainted signs. Whatever people can do to save a few bucks is fine with me. The handpainted signs are OK. Except for the ones that have run out of room before getting their message across. They should go find another piece of wood and start over. It looks so unprofessional:

But today takes the cake. I saw a handpainted sign that read:

Blue barry for sale
