Blueberry Lemon Pound Cake



Blueberry Lemon Pound Cake
As the gentle trade winds stir the palm fronds above my sleepy head, I send you to our Guest Post on Chef Dennis' More Than a Mount Full for a slice of Blueberry Pound Cake.  Liv Life is taking a much needed day of off.  Dennis, however, has featured our Pound Cake in all its glory along with an essay by Liv, a Myth on Why Ants are Small.  We'd like to take a moment to say that all the characters in the story are completely fictional and that any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.  More importantly... My dad's name is Jerry and when you read the myth on Dennis' blog you will understand our disclaimer!


Bora Bora 2/10 - Kim Kelly
For us though, we are headed out for a bit of snorkeling and swimming with the sea turtles, then off try our hand at hanging 10 and catching a few waves.  However... with the surf a bit on the small side today, we may just stretch ourselves out on a the warm sand and catch a bit of a nap, taking in each and every ray the sun is so lovingly sending our direction.  Thinking of you Dennis, may the 23º warm up soon!
Wish you were here!!!
(just dreaming... be back tomorrow)

    I don't know which picture I like better, the beach scene or Blueberry Lemon Pound cake:) Well, because I won't be going to the beach anytime soon, I'll have to choose the pound cake:)

    Great guest post on Chef Dennis, Kim and Liv!

    How awesome to see you ladies at More Than A Mountfull! I'm so bummed I didn't get to see it sooner. I do have some catching up to do...

    That poundcake is not only gorgeous but it looks delicious too.

    I just love that myth it's very well written! I am trying to motivate Taylor in her writing since she is in an English class so maybe that will help...I'll have her read it.

    I hope you are having a beautiful weekend wherever you are! Thinking of you...now get some rest we have a road trip to make! Don't tell Dennis let's make it a surprise and invite ourselves over for dinner...

    I can't thank you all enough for your wonderful comments both here and on Dennis' blog!! We've had a rough week this week with my mother in the hospital and I have been reading the comments to her (and the nurses!) while she is recovering. Your comments have meant the world to us! Thank you!!
