Blueberry Cake

As Paul and I were preparing for our wedding, the church required that we go through a mentoring program before we could get married in the church.  We had a wonderful couple who we still run into and have a wonderful time chatting with when we do see them.  Every week Sharon would make some sort of dessert for us to have during our time together, and one week she made a wonderful blueberry cake.  She explained to us that the recipe actually came from her neighbor who is now blind, but who would make this fantastic cake for them on occasion.  Sharon was kind enough to share the recipe with me, and I have since made it numerous times for various occasions.  Most recently Paul and I had to bring breakfast for Sunday School, so I decided I was going to make the blueberry cake.

Everyone at Sunday School loved the cake, and Little Man loves it too!

Today Little Man tried to lick the plate because he enjoyed it so much.
