Blueberry Crumb Cake

We made this for a women's activity at church and even though I hadn't tried it out before hand I can always trust a recipe from the Pioneer Woman's blog.  Five different women made this cake and though each cake looked a little different every single one was delicious, so this is truly a universal no fail recipe. So good and a perfect spring and summer dessert or breakfast or brunch.
