Ok- this seriously is to die for!!!  I made this for breakfast today and it is sooooo yummy!
I posted this back in December, but it is perfect for a summer brunch or breakfast!  You can find the recipe here Blueberry French Toast .  Go try it!  By the way if you don't make anything else- make the berry syrup!  It would be good on anything- even plain.  We love making swedish pancakes and this would go perfect with it- or on ice cream or on anything, seriously!!
