Peach Blueberry Crisp

Apple crisp is one of the desserts my sister Verulam used to make often at my parents’ house, way back when we all lived on the same continent.  Apple desserts were my brother’s favourite. I loved it for the crispy oat and brown sugar topping, the vanilla ice cream melting in little pools around it.  

Blueberry Mojitos

I really feel like summer and warm weather will never get here this year.  I can feel myself getting whiney.  Why is it still below 20C (68F) outside?? Why is it raining all the time?  I know it’s not technically summer yet according to the calendar, but it feels like it should be here.  Oh Canada, I love so many things about you, but winter... I could do without the extra long winters.  

Lemon Blueberry Scones In Real Life

** These pictures were not staged.  All were taken with my phone in a very dimly lit kitchen.  Real life.**

It was an early morning here, something that doesn’t happen very often.  I guess we’re still partially on Europe time.  I found myself awake and staring at the ceiling thinking about what to make for breakfast.  The lemons and blueberries I bought yesterday seemed destined to come together in a warm and crumbly pastry.
