Skillet Blueberry Crisp – fresh blueberries baked with an almond oatmeal topping. Top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and it’s the perfect dessert, especially when blueberries are in season.
I took a nap yesterday.
I was so unbelievably tired. I don’t usually like to take naps because more often than not I wake up feeling more groggy and worse than I did before. But I took one anyway.
And maybe I shouldn’t have because I had some pretty weird dreams. The first one, I was driving in our car and the brakes gave out. I was able to slow the car down, but then the steering locked up and I couldn’t control it. Fortunately, I woke myself up before an accident happened.

Then I fell asleep again.
I woke up craving BLT’s with avocados because I’d been dreaming about them. And that’s weird only because I have never been one to eat avocados – don’t like the consistency. But I really wanted one on my BLT. So I had one. Made them for dinner and they were delish.
You should try them sometime!
