Sunday relaxing and a blueberry dessert.

Sunday morning feeding. Everyone came running in. 


Summer came in … now family with the lambs. 


I couldn't find the hens... they were harassing the hens, not letting them come out of the coop. I am going to separate them. 


Summer spooked me. I turned around and she was right behind me, nudging in on me. 



Then we went for our Sunday walk. It was a gorgeous morning. 



Later the clouds rolled in and we had tornado warning causing our radios to go off. We did have an active rotation for about 20 minutes but then it grumbled off to the east of us. 





The sun came back out and I got more peppers, flowers and tomatoes planted. Dude went in behind me and loosened the soil

Stupid me forgot my sunscreen and got burned. I am usually very cautious about making sure I have it on, it is so important!


After heading east the storm came back around. We are expecting storms off and on tonight. It did help to cool the day off. 



Dude went to work in the greenhouse and I went in to make blueberry crisp. It is the season of berries and they are beautiful. My mom used to make crisps and cobblers during the spring and summer months. I tried to remember how she made them.  Hope it does hers justice. 
I was making this for Dude and my dessert tonight. 
I melted an 4 tablespoons of butter with 1/4 cup sugar. 
Added  2 cups of blueberries and a squirt of lemon juice. 
Boil done.


In the mean time I mixed 1 cup oats with 1/3 cup of brown sugar.  Add 4 tablespoons of butter, a tablespoon of flour and mix with your hands. We had leftover mixed nuts so I added about a 1/4 cup of those chopped. 


Back to the berries... add a teaspoon full of corn starch and mix well.   Cook until thickens. 

Pour into small ramekins or pots that have been sprayed with cooking spray.  Top with the oat mixture.  Bake at 350* for 20-25 minutes. I topped with the leftover topping after I took out of the oven. To cool it off we topped with ice cream. 




Dinner was leftover pork roast I had froze a few months early and sliced for stir-fry and cantaloupe. 

peace
