"Boscoe Bakes"... "Peach Blueberry Cake"

The other day I got carried away at the supermarket (nothing unusual) and bought a huge bounty of peaches, plums, nectarines, blueberries and strawberries.  I've started using "Debbie Meyer's" Green Bags, and now enjoy the luxury of storing produce that lives on happy and healthy a lot longer as opposed to traditional storage methods. This unfortunately means that my refrigerator now looks more like the "Emerald City", and requires a scavenger hunt mentality to find where I've buried some of my treasures. My blueberries and peaches started sending me signals that they would like to escape the land of "Oz", so I got busy looking for a recipe that I hadn't tried in order to accommodate their travel requests. The perfect recipe popped into view, (sort of like Dorothy and her house landing) when I stopped by "Simply Recipes".  Two years ago, Elise featured this decadent recipe which originated in the August edition of Gourmet in 2005. Her photo of this masterpiece drew me in, and I immediately grabbed my blueberries and peaches and got to work.  Preparing this yummy fruit dessert is simple, and the end result.........paradise.  My only complaint, which apparently is rather common, is that the consistency of the cake is very sloppy and runny. I will definitely double up on the tapioca next time I prepare this luscious treat. I made one slight change to the recipe which highlighted the peaches, and that was the inclusion of Peach Schnapps as opposed to lemon juice in the filling. This cake is delicious either warm or cold.  Enjoy it slowly......Happy Summer
