BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE CAKE








oh my....I nearly didn't blog this cake....ha ha..lined and greased my cake tin...started to pour batter into it...and noticed the melted butter still in the saucepan!!  As i poured the melted butter onto top of the already mixed batter...my son walks in...I said...if this isn't here when you get home ...don't be surprised....thinking no way it will work and would be promptly deposited in the bin. It passed by a  margin.  and only on hubby's say so!  Ok...waves profusely! Till the next blog!
