I like to have this coffee cake around at this time of year for when people drop in unexpectedly. It’s wonderful with coffee.

The blueberry coffee cakes sounds so good!
Thanks for linking up! 🙂
those look SOOOOO good! What is it about cooler weather that makes us want to keep such sweet and savory items around at all times 😛
Goodness, this sounds delicious!!
These recipes sound wonderful! It’s a great idea to have cakes around for the visitors, but I have found that I simply can’t control myself and like to have a little piece every time I walk by! It’s not a good thing! Good for you for having self control! Thanks for linking up with us today and I’ll look forward to seeing you next week!
That sounds like the dump cake my hubby likes so much. We don’t put bananas in it though or nuts.
yum yum mail it out, I’ll be waiting.
