I finally finished a sock! Initially, I stopped working on it because I wasn't sure I liked the fit, but I needed a sock to knit yesterday, on dpns for some reason, and I decided I did like it.
This the first of a pair of Pomatomous in Dream in Color Smooshy in Gothic Rose. Despite my previous doubts, I love this sock and must start on the second one after I finish this post.
I decided Josh and I needed some more fruit in our diet so I made a blueberry crisp.
I combined a couple recipes which worked pretty well.
For the fruit:
2 lbs frozen blueberries,feel free to use fresh but halve the amt of cornstarch)
2 tbl corn starch
1/2c sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Bake at 375F for 30 minutes or until the fruit gives off some juice.
For the topping:
1c old fashioned oats (I like them better than quick oats)
1/3c flour
2/3c brown sugar
pinch of salt
cinnamon, cloves, ginger or whatever you want
1 1/2 sticks (3/4 c) unsalted butter cut into small cubes
I also added some pecans
combine all ingredients and use your fingers to mush it all together until you get course crumbs.
When fruit has baked for at least 30 minutes, add topping and bake for another 40-50 minutes until top is golden and crispy unless you like it softer than bake it until then.
I also made this and put it into the refrigerator to grow overnight.
Any guesses what it is going to become for dinner tonight?
