I Found My Thrill...on Blueberry Hill

Yesterday Libby and Drew decided they wanted to make a "special treat". I was going for cupcakes from a cake mix since I wasn't all that in the mood for baking. But we discovered 1 major problem - we were out of eggs! And since it was blazing hot and there was no way I was venturing out to the store, I decided to get out a cookbook to find some sort of yummy treat that didn't require eggs.

This was no easy task, I tell you, because almost everything had eggs in it. Until I stumbled across this beauty listed in my cookbook from the Jr. League of Alexandria, VA (purchased at Goodwill a few weeks ago for $1). It's called Blueberry Batter Cake. Y'all, it was DELISH to say the least. I must admit that the directions had me skeptical b/c I was pouring boiling water on the batter and stuff. Ok, huh?? But can I tell you that it was part cake, part cobbler, and lots of yummy blueberries. YUM. I think it would be the perfect dinner party or potluck dish or even as a house-warming gift to a new neighbor. Not that I know this from experience or anything, but it's scrumptious served warm, but also yummy straight out the fridge the next morning day.!

Just take a look...

Thank you, Mrs. Stephen Schaffer, wherever you may be!

I know, I know-- yesterday was about lemons and today is about blueberries. I'm just trying to hold onto summer as it is fading away!

And now for some blueberry inspiration from Cayenne Paper:

P.S. DO NOT let your little ones eat blueberries in these 2 outfits (at least if you want them to stay white)! :)
