blueberry boy bait

After almost 3 months on hiatus, I'm back! It's been a very odd summer. I have to admit, studying full time rather than working is different. Although that three letter word haunted us everyday (and still does until next week!), I spent my summer studying, eating and playing with some of my favourite girls. Regardless of next week's outcome, it was a good summer and hopefully all of our hard work will pay off!

Anyhow, enough about the summer, and onto the baked goods! I had frozen blueberries that I never had the chance to bake during the past month and stumbled on this recipe while surfing on smitten kitchen. Deb's recipes never disappoint. With such a whimsical name, it had to be baked! Blueberry boy bait! ;) Who could resist this buttery cake?

baked strawberry oatmeal

I can't believe I haven't baked anything with strawberries yet. It's one of those fruits that I just love to eat. I think I could eat it every day just like bananas and oatmeal. I present to you, the baked strawberry oatmeal. I'll admit that it looks terrible and not quite appetizing, but I like to think that it is its rustic charm.

lemon blueberry loaf

I always have a stash of frozen blueberries whenever I feel like making blueberry muffins (my favorite!). These berries are so versatile since you can eat them fresh, bake them and even make smoothies out of them. Thank goodness that I'm not yet allergic! I decided to get creative and change up my blueberry craving so I decided to make a lemon blueberry loaf.

oatmeal carrot cake cookies

There's still some grated carrot leftover from my carrot muffins, but I think it'll be easy to use that up. So with most of the remaining carrot, I decided to make cookies. They turned out to be super moist and also surprisingly healthy! This makes an amazing guilt-free afternoon snack.

zucchini bread

Here is the final installment of my zucchini posts. I finally finished all the grated zucchini today. Oddly enough, it feels like such a great accomplishment. I realized that I should have weighed it rather than taking a picture in comparison to the iPod classic. Ah well!
