Lemon-Blueberry Crumb Bars!! (Take 2)

ByChristine @ theDIYdreamer.com

Last September I shared a Lemon-Blueberry Crumb Bar recipe.. which I LOVE.  I LOVE it so much that I made it again last week.  Yes, I realize that I should add recipes with lemons in my ”addiction” cabinet along with earrings.

Lemon-Blueberry Crumb Bars

1/2 cup sugar
2-1/2 cups fresh blueberries

Steps:

  3. OHHH do they look good.

    You love lemons ? I do too…have you ever tried a cold potatoe salad with lemon / I like it in the summer. Basically thinly sliced cooked potatoes, some sweet onion slices, toss with oil and add the juice of lemon. I’d say….perhaps one lemon per potatoe. Salt and pepper / chill.

    This is one of the salads that I made for 4th of July. My neice loved it / picky son did not but you have to be a lemon fan : )
