This blueberry crumb cake looks awesome! I'd love to be a personal chef!
Sounds delicious! I love blueberries.
I bet they appreciate you attention to detail! This reminds me of when I worked at a B&B...I loved coming in the mornings when all was quiet and preparing the morning meal, and then as the quest arrived into the dining room the looks on their face and as they ate each course...
