This week has been a little crazy, and I’m glad for a little relaxation this weekend. How about y’all?
Amidst all the craziness, I stopped at the grocery to pickup a few things and noticed gorgeous blueberries on sale. I’m not into eating them by themselves but when baked into some sweet concoction, I LOVE ‘em! And when you top that sweet concoction with ice cream, it’s sweet gooey blueberry heaven!
Today’s blueberry heaven…Blueberry Cobbler…
This is a new recipe that I tried, and I think the nutmeg takes it over the top! A warm, gooey, sweet blueberry bottom with a crunchy, cinnamon/sugar topping and melty ice cream on top, I think this is the definition of sweet comfort food.
I hope y’all have a great Memorial Day weekend!
