I uttered the words “I have an abundance of blueberries” the other day and oh my word….you got on to me. I promise you not a single blueberry was left unturned or uneaten. The majority of them found their way into these awe-mazing Blueberry Pecan Crumble Bars.

Growing up, this was the quintessential coffee cake in our home. We lived in blueberry country. Early on my grandfather Boppy grew the most gorgeous cultured blueberries. They were so sweet and big and juicy. Later we relied on wild blueberries which bordered tree lines and paths throughout our property. While it took a bit longer to fill our baskets, the reward was well worth it. The reward…was my sister Sarah making this heavenly Blueberry Coffee Cake. Continue reading »

Last week when I got to the end of several of my salad ingredients I was left with spinach, blueberries, and a bit of goat cheese. I drizzled that with balsamic vinaigrette and discovered my favorite salad of the summer. Continue reading »

Blueberry Basil Lemonade.
One summer when we were small we begged and begged our mom to let us have a lemonade stand. Please mom. We promise we’ll do all the work. As I recall I was about 5 and my sister Sarah 8. We had big plans but were lacking in ‘how to start a business’ experience and the start up capital required, not to mention knowing how to make lemonade. Mom somehow was able to distract us time after time, until we eventually stopped asking. Continue reading »
