Meal # 8 Blueberry Sauce with Cheesecake

This wasn't actually a meal if you are wondering but I did make this to cross off blueberries, orange juice and vanilla. It was such a pretty recipe. The blueberries when warmed seep out this beautiful blue-purple color. We used it on the cheese cake and also on pancakes the next morning. It was even good the next day!I first put the blueberries, water, oj, sugar and vanilla in a sauce pan. That alone was kinda cool looking. It looked like little blue heads poking out of the ocean. Then when it began to boil the blue-purple spread throughout the mixture. To thicken it up, I added cornstarch and a bit more water. I think I put a little too much because it was a bit lumpy. I drizzled it over the cinnamon cheesecake and served up the following people:

Gabriel - 5 (of course)
Brody - 4
Jeff - 3.7 (on pancakes the next morning)
Tiff - 4

Overall - not bad! The cheesecake was my favorite one yet, because I don't really like cheese cake. They don't really go together for me and the texture of most cheesecakes makes me want to puke. My very own cheesecake did not, I enjoyed it immensely. Maybe it is like when you have your own kids. They won't gross you out as much as other people's kids do. Their vomit and spit-up is okay because it's yours and you made the thing leaking it. That was me and my baby called cheesecake.
