"On my recipe card it says Barb's 1972. So here you go, a wonderful wild blueberry Buckle from Barb's time in Ontaria, before the move to B.C. and before blackberries became our favourites to explore. We like it because it's so easy to make, and, when blueberries are in season, it is a great one for Sunday Brunch in our house. Thanks Barb!"

This was easy to make, and it tasted good. It looked so much like cobbler, though, that I think I expected it to be as sweet as cobbler! LOL It isn't a real sweet dessert. But I enjoyed it, and will make it again. Thanks for sharing, Scandigirl!

Canada

I'm Danish-Canadian! I immigrated to Canada in 1968 and lived in B.C. until 1979, then we had the wonderful opportunity to live in Hawaii for almost 3 years. We moved to Southern Ontario in 1982. Of profession, I'm a Doctor of Human Biochemistry, specializing in Nutrition, a Doctor of Homeopathic Medicine, and a Registered Nutrition Consultant Practitioner, I have my own full time practice. My passion is cooking! I have tested and tried over 10.000 recipes over the last 30 years on my beloved husband who is now residing in a Long Term Facility with Dementia, so I have to make meals for one, healthy and simple. />My pet peeve is too much garlic in a creamy rich sauce. My favourite cookbook is the one I have made myself over the past 40 years. My interests are knitting Scandinavian socks, sweaters, reading. If I had a month off I would visit our adult children and 4 year old Granddaughter, who resides in British Columbia and Florida, and cook them their favorite meals.
