If you haven't noticed, I haven't been baking much lately. A lot has been going on that has kept me out of the kitchen. However, in what I have had for free time, I have been looking through my CL Annual Recipes cookbook for 1999. Which is where my Longevity Noodles came from (yum - I will be making them again).
This morning since I was up early again, I decided to go ahead an make the Blueberry Crumb Cake recipe I had tabbed and had been thinking about making the last few days. The house smells wonderful this morning and my co-workers are going to be nicely surprised on this Friday morning. :o)

I plan to make this today! I just bought blueberries yesterday and made pancakes with them. I was wondering what to do with the rest of them! Thanks!
Also, did you try putting the blueberries in flour so that they don't settle to the bottom? I don't it really matters because your cake look perfect as is!

Yum! This looks so delicious. I just bought a huge package of blueberries, and I've been looking for a tried-and-true recipe like this one. Even my picky boyfriend just leaned over my should and told me that "That looks good. Youl should make that." Huge kudos to you for evoking those compliments from him--and of course, as usual, I think your treats look delicious!

Made it, and it is of course delicious! Not just great, but we could barely stop and save some for the kids when they come home from school 🙂

This cake is heanvenly looking. I am looking forward to summer berries again. Crumb cake has to be on of the best types of cake and so fancy but so simple too. The noodles with shrimp looks delish and I have been craving shrimp! Will try soon.
