This morning David let us watch Hairspray while I made breakfast and he assembled our new dresser from IKEA.
There’s such a small percentage of my friend population that is willing to watch this movie with me. David offered me an act of great love and sacrifice. I cry every time I watch this movie. I don’t know why. I just love it so much. It’s weird. Anyway, back to the Breakfast Bread.

I have never seen Hairspray, I might need to check it out now. :) I have buttermilk in my fridge that needs to be used! This bread looks like the perfect thing! Thanks for the recipe!
Hairspray is a favorite. I hope you like it. And the bread!
I am not a big blueberry fan but the bread looks great, is there any other fruit that would work well with this recipe?
Oh yeah, almost any fruit would work great! If you have any successful experiments you’ll have to tell me what to try next!
love,

Did I miss it? How much buttermilk do you use?
Great catch! My mistake. 1/2 cup of buttermilk. Hope it didn’t cause you any inconvenience. Thanks for commenting.
Love,

Thanks Rebecca! It was pretty yummy, but I liked it even better when we reheated it for dinner and ate it with vanilla ice cream.
This blueberry bread looks fabulous! How did it taste? I think blueberries are the perfect food. They remind me of Little Miss Muffetts tuffet. I know that sounds silly, but that’s what I think each time I see one of those plumb little blueberries.
