Blackberry Cobbler








Blackberry Cobbler (from Betty Crocker)

2 1/2 cups blackberries (thawed or fresh)
1 cup Sugar (I used organic, fair trade)
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 Tbsp butter or margarine
1/2 tsp salt

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix berries and sugar and set aside for twenty minutes (until syrup forms).
Mix together remaining ingredients until batter is smooth.
Spoon batter into ungreased 8" pan.
Spoon berry mixture on top.
Cook for 45-55 minutes.
This recipe says not to substitute blueberries.
Enjoy!

Cheers.

Blackberry Picking with my Best Friends









Photo Essays

My hard working husband finally broke and bought me my big girl camera.  I have alot of learning ahead of me.  I want to take better photos and really get my money's worth.   So...my next few blog posts will be what is known  as photo essays.  Thanks to my neighbor, Edwige, I have a book called 150 Projects to Strengthen Your Photography Skills (by John Easterby).  One of them happens to be photo essays.
 
Stay tuned for berry picking at Westmoreland Berry Farms and Cobbler Cookin'.

Plus, this picture taking has turned out to be very relaxing.  My close friends and family know what kind of immense stress (and desperation) I have been under lately.  And of you would like to pray for me, that would be great too!

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers!

Happy Vacation from Hilton Head Island!

Hilton Head Island is one of my most favorite places in earth.  I love South Carolina's Lowcountry with all of my being and hope to retire here someday.  These pictures are just some of the things that remind me of this beautiful place.




Most importantly, I live being with my family here.  We had a great Independence Day celebration at Harbor Town.  Hope you enjoyed your holiday as well!

Cheers!
