For some reason we don't always finish the blueberries in the fridge. I guess maybe the kids and I like them really firm. And I save all the soft blueberries for baking. This recipe was supposed to be a bundt cake. I could not find that particular pan so I used my trusty loaf pan. And I totally cannot recall where I found this recipe. I feel badly I am not giving whoever posted it credit. The loaf was moist and delicious.
