By
Sometimes it is soo hard to get up on a Saturday morning, isn't it? Well, here is a recipe that will be sure to get your family out of bed...guaranteed! I love blueberries and they really are a wonderful super food to help get your body going. I have made this recipe for years and it always is a huge hit! So, here it is! Hope you enjoy! :)

********

BLUEBERY STREUSEL COFFEE CAKE

2 C. flour
3/4 C. sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
Combine.
Then, Add:
1/2 C. milk
1 beaten egg
1/2 C. butter or margarine, softened
Beat well.
Fold in:
1 C. Fresh or frozen blueberries (I sometimes add more because I love alot of blueberries)
1 C. Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Spread in greased 9 inch square baking pan. (Batter will be stiff) In another bowl, prepare streusel.

Streusel:
1/2 C. sugar
1/3 C. flour
1/4 C. cold butter or margarine.

Combine sugar and flour. Cut in butter/margarine until crumbly.
Sprinkle over batter. Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes until toothpick comes out clean.

***Note*** For a larger cake (13X9 size pan) double all ingredients and bake for one hour.
These are blueberries that we picked ourselves last summer. They are HUGE and end up being so juicy.
Preparing the streusel. I uses a pastry cutter as it is quick at cutting the butter.
Baking in the oven!
All done! Melts in your mouth!

    Looks delicious! I don't really like blueberries. I blame Charlie and the Chocolate Factory :)

The Pickle Juice Company Review

By
How many of you are super athletic and active during the summer months? I used to be...prior to having children and now, it seems I chase them all around so that counts as something, right? One concern that many athletes and active people have during the summer is hydration and the risk of dehydration, especially if you live in a hot/tropical climate. We life in NY state so we have four full seasons, our summers can be hot and humid and if you are active, that can be challenging. The other issue that many run into is having a sports drink that can replenish and refresh their system that is gluten free and healthy for them too. Food allergies can limit the choices when it comes to hydration drinks. So, today I am going to introduce you to The Pickle Juice Company . This company specializes in gluten-free sports drinks that will stop muscle cramps in their tracks and keep you hydrated and refreshed no matter what activities you are participating in this summer!

Carmex Healing Lotion & Healing Cream Review

By
Because I am a member of the Carmex Blog Squad , I am informed of and privileged to bring you reviews of Carmex's newest products! This is something that I have been doing for awhile and have really grown to love the Carmex brand. The newest products that have been introduced by Carmex are lovely and will definitely impress you as they have me. Because I am a mom, I wash my hands frequently. After diaper changes, before cleaning wounds, bathroom breaks, preparing food...all this requires clean hands. Because I usually apply lotion while I am moving and going from one thing to the next, I do not like a greasy lotion. I HATE applying a cream and having to "dry" my hands for the next half hour. What a perfectly good waste of time that is. So, I was wondering what Carmex would offer me in way of fast and quickly absorbing lotion. Before I continue, here is a bit more about Carmex for those of you who are new to their brand... Carmex® lip balm was invented in 1...

Cafe Press Review

Are any of you married to a computer guy ? Do you lovingly call him a "geek" sometimes? (my hand is raised here...LOL!) My husband is the most wonderful man in the world. He is funny, sincere, loving and VERY handy with the computer. I have issues sometimes with coding and am often heard calling "Honey? Can you come look at my blog? I don't know how to fix this!!!!" And, my charming prince comes to rescue me. My darling is going to be 31 in a week and I am SO excited to be able to celebrate another birthday with him. He also shares a birthday with our daughter which makes the day twice as fun. :) She has been talking about her birthday for WEEKS and cannot wait! This next review item is for him so if you know him (and I am hoping he doesn't read my blog for the next week :/) don't tell him about this!!!!!!!! If you are looking for perfect, unique and personalized gifts for someone special in your life I will tell you that after this post, you...
