Shamed by the Billy Goat. And Cobbler.

I have been shamed. I am hanging my head.

A little Billy Goat said I had neglected my blog. I thought I had done pretty well - something every couple of days. Hmph! Heck, I even wrote a whole blog on my iPhone. THAT takes dedication. So, to hear that the vast majority readership feels I’ve neglected my blog… Shamed.

So I am blogging. Tonight's blog is about cooking. Cobbler, specifically. The first question: What is the proper spelling? Cobbler or cobler? My spellchecker thinks that there are two b's, so I am going with that.

I am not much of a cook. It is on my "to do" list as something I'll work on when I have time on my hands. (IE: When the kids are all grown). I have a whole cabinet full of cookbooks, most of them family hand-me-downs and such. I also have a whole "book" of recipes that I've written down, clipped from magazines, looked up on the internet, etc. Sadly, I've never even tried to make anything from most of the cookbooks, or my “that looks good” collection. Oh -- I do have Julia Childs cookbook. I bought it for myself.

The point of this is that, me, making homemade anything, is blog worthy. A serious accomplishment. If it turns out well, I shout it from the roof tops. And take pictures. :)

My sister-in-law is a cook. She makes things she sees on TV, and Paula Dean recipes, and always has something fabulous. Her husband is a great cook, too. On father’s day, said SIL make these two cobblers that were to die for. One peach and one blueberry. I asked for the recipe, and could not believe how easy it was. I made it tonight. Prep time 3 minutes. Cook time about 40 minutes.Mine wasn't as good as hers, but it was still very good. I bought vanilla ice cream to go with it.

Mmmm! Drool away!
