This is last minute so we'll make do with Kroger if we have to.

BUT, my kiddo has just let me know how much she misses my cooking and baking when she's off at college. She's asked for some blueberry muffins to take with her. I used to be able to buy local blueberries, fresh or frozen, at the Clinton Kroger and they were so much better.

Do any of the other nearby stores in the area still carry Mississippi blueberries? Am I out of luck bc it's August? I have used google maps to do a search but so many of the results don't do anything with their websites so I can't tell what they have or if they are even open (one of them I know is closed down permanently but is still slowing as a viable option).

We'll be heading out late tomorrow (Saturday) so I have today and a bit to track down berries and get to baking. Thanks all, for any help you can give! (even if just letting me know to move to plan B asap)

Hey y’all are there any low-cost intramural sports in our area? The only one I’ve seen is the kickball team, and that’s already over.

I'm from Nashville and lived in the Memphis area akd nearby rural areas for quite awhile in my adult life. I've not spent any time at jackson, though, just northern mississippi. I'm a single elder millennial. I would love to get back to the south on some levels. And on others not so much. But i'm living in a pretty small, midwestern town right now. That's not really doing it for me. Would there be a vibrant social scene that I might could get involved in without any prior connections? And are there any walkable, or at least hip neighborhoods that I might would be interested in moving to?

I’m traveling in for Labor Day weekend to catch the Battle of the Bands at the stadium on Sunday. I'm really looking forward to the show, but since I'm trying to be smart about staying safe, I'm planning to spend my free time hanging out up around Ridgeland/Madison to keep things low-key.
I’m getting in early, so I have Friday and Saturday completely open before the event. On Saturday during the day, I'd love to get outdoors or see some history, but I want to make sure I'm sticking to secure spots.
Does anyone know any safe sections of the Natchez Trace (like the Chisha Foka Multi-Use Trail or Boyd Mounds) or secure paths around the Reservoir that are good for a Saturday morning walk?
For food, I’m looking for awesome, casual Southern food or BBQ. I’ve heard about places like Barbeque Shine, Mama Hamil's Buffet, The Trace Grill, and Cock of the Walk. Are these spots actually as good as they sound, or are there other must-visit local BBQ joints or chicken spots in the suburbs I should look into instead?

I am currently in retail and hate it. I have a 4 yr business degree and tech savvy. I make $15/hr so it would have to pay at least that much. I want something in an office if possible. Also, I'm a woman but I'm not opposed to physical work,if the money is right.
