Mulligan Stew with Blueberry Dumplings

This recipe is not what I expected but is sounds so scrumtious that I can't wait to try it. The preparation is a bit detailed for my busy schedule. However, taking time out to do something you love can be theraputic. I hope the result is worth the effort.[What I was searching for was a long lost family recipe for bluberry dumplings in bluberry sauce. It is a dish from North Carolina; a very sweet, sticky dish.]
