Last night our dessert was inspired by my friend Corrie at http://corrieanne.com/ who shared this link Blueberries & cream ramekins via Tish’s Place on her blog a couple days ago. The best part was that I didn't feel too guilty eating it! :) It was simply delicious and didn't take a whole lot of effort. Like Corrie, I only had plain yogurt, so I added a little bit of vanilla extract and that did the trick! I also had some strawberries that needed to be eaten, so I mixed them in with the blueberries. YUM.
I was really bummed when I found out that our dessert had to be broiled. A few months ago I managed to break our broiler due to a flaming garlic bread fiasco. No joke. That is a story for another day. But here is a picture to prove how bad it was. Too bad I didn't have time to take a picture when there were actually flames shooting off of them!
Anyway....back to the problem of having a broken broiler. My sweet husband saved the day when he said "I think have a blow torch in the basement!" :) He did. It worked wonderfully.

| My handsome assistant. :) Pretty sure we put more brown sugar on top than the recipe called for. That's what happens when you let your husband help. ;) Then again...I didn't really try to stop him. Oh. man. that caramelized brown sugar sure was tasty. Hmmm....Did I say something about not feeling too guilty? ;) |

| SO. GOOD. |
In other news, I am so very thankful to have the next 2 days off of work. It has been quite busy around here these last couple weeks, so I am perfectly content to stay inside tomorrow and get some things done around home. This house needs a good cleanin'!
I hope you're all having a great week!
I FEEL SO LOVED! It's so much cooler that you made with a torch!!!!
