It is Wednesday, the midpoint of the work/school week.  You know how some weeks go by really fast and other weeks go by really slow.  This is a slow week at our house.  I woke up thinking it was more like a Friday to only realize moments later, it is actually only Wednesday.  I’m not sure why this week is so slow.  Maybe I am excited for a little Girls Time this weekend, or maybe I am still adjusting to the school schedule; whatever it is it needs to move along a little quicker.

However, there is nothing better than a little cake to cure a slow week.  This Upside Down Blueberry Cake is a easy recipe that takes only a few minutes to put together.  And whether you want to eat it for breakfast or dessert is up to you.
