beat eggs well, Add milk & syrup & mix. Pour over bread mixture. Cover & chill 8 hours or overnight. Remove from fridge 30 min. before baking.

In a saucepan, combine sugar & cornstarch; add water. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in blueberries; reduce heat. Simmer for 8-10 mintues or until berries have burst. Stir in butter until melted.
Serve over French Toast.

It really is -
it's also so easy for entertaining. One time I made it for some friends for our "girls weekend getaway" - there is no praise higher than a bunch of happy moms!
