Summer and I ran a dozen warm blueberry muffins in to the grandkids.
She needed an outing and a long walk at the beach wasn't in the cards for today. She got a change of scenery at least.
Shortly after we used up a bunch of berries we went right back to the berry patch and picked more. Too many sweet ripe berries is a good problem to have.

A first batch out and cooling…
Still hot here, so using the toaster oven to make a batch of blueberry-carrot oatmeal muffins.
Doing them in two batches as our 12-muffin pan doesn't quite fit. Doh!

I was going to bake bread today until it was suggested that an apple pie would be so, so nice for dessert. We do have some vanilla ice cream that might go to waste if we don't use it. My husband even noted that we have lots of cinnamon on hand and that I could make some sweet cinnamon drizzle to enhance the ice cream.
He had invested so much thought related to this hypothetical dessert I started cooking.
This is my moment to make a dream come true in real life. How cool is that.

My boy couldn't wait for the cake to be finished. If I hadn't interviewed there wouldn't be much of the walnut biscuit left.
In the end managed to make a cake, and had to improvise to keep the chocolate cream in place.
Yes, I did try to keep my youngest away from the biscuit but I failed. Soon, others joined in on tasting the biscuit. Morgan decided that it is tasty and demanded more.

It's a very light bread, very sweet, with a substantial crisp crust, and honestly os not a candy. I honestly thought it'd be less "bread" and more "brownie" if not "just candy," but no, it's... kind of a bread!

@moz lol yeah I've made something very similar to dutch fruit cake, and it absolutely was a brick. I think mine had a _little_ more flour, but _not much_.
