Happy first day of spring! We are having a beautiful start to spring here in Southern California and we’ve already received several invitations to beach parties this weekend. I can’t wait! I’m finishing up things at work right now so I can get an early start to the weekend, but I thought I’d share this recipe that I made the other night when I had some leftover blueberries. These were eaten piping hot out of the oven and there were no leftovers, so I guess they were a success. I hope you have a lovely weekend!
