Lemon Blueberry Loaf

I made this recipe for no other reason but it sounded delicious.  It's not full of particularly fall flavors, but it's tasty any time of year.  It was pretty easy to make and turned out nicely, though not quite as pretty as the original.

First flour the loaf pan so it doesn't stick.

It's the same basic procedure as most baking recipes... whisk together wet ingredients, add in dry ingredients, then fold in chunky ingredients, in this case the blueberries that you've coated with flour.
Pour your batter into your loaf dish and bake.

I'm not entirely sure why there's both a syrup and a glaze.  I guess to keep it moist and sweet.  My glaze stayed a little bit lumpy.  Oh well.
I liked this recipe although there was nothing terribly remarkable about it.  It was tasty but since it is "normal" baking and full of sugar, I probably wouldn't make this very often.
Cost: Only things I had to buy were the frozen blueberries and organic lemon.
Time: Mixing time, baking time... normal.
Difficulty: Easy peasy.
Aesthetic Appeal: It's pretty when it's cut because you see all the pretty blueberries.  My glaze could be a little thicker and smoother.
Life Enhancement: I'd serve it to guests for sure, but I wouldn't make it for myself just to snack on.
