Blueberry Dats

By Cia Huston Dreves

I guess because my EEG was scheduled at lunchtime, the technician, a sweet girl named Cynthia, and I began a conversation about food. The conversation was as lengthy as the test.

During our discussion of cobblers, Cynthia shared the story of her family’s favorite, made exclusively by her father as a family treat called “Blueberry Dats.”

Yesterday, being a truly gray and rainy day and with no indoor tasks being of particular interest, I scanned the refrigerator with Cynthia’s Blueberry Dats in mind. Not only did I have a container of blueberries….Grab the recipe and see what else Cia has to say here
