It was BERRY, BERRY good!

Last weekend I had a work party on the lake to go to and I had to bring a side item so I decided since to make my Berry Cobbler. I really only make it for special occasions because Chris isn't really a fan of it so if I made it just for the two of us then it would be a waste because I'm the only one that eats it. Anyway, it was a big hit and I know this because there was only one serving left when I brought it home from the party. So for all of you berry fans here's the recipe. It's super easy and oh so delicious!

Three Berry Cobbler (from Southern Living)

1 (12 ounce) package of frozen blackberries

1 (12 ounce) package of frozen raspberries

1 (12 ounce) package of frozen blueberries

1 1/2 cups of sugar

1 teaspoon of vanilla

1/2 cup of all purpose flour

1/4 cup of margarine/butter, melted

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix all the above ingredients together and pour into casserole dish.

Topping

Take a refregerated pie crust and lay on top of casserole. You can make all kinds of fun shapes to cover it. Then brush crust with a lightly beaten egg and sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar on top. Bake in over fro 55 to 60 minutes. Yum!

To serve it warm while traveling you may want to invest in a casserole warmer. My brother and sister-in-law gave me one a couple of years ago. It's come in handy to travel with. Last weekend while the pie was cooking I decided to monogram it so I would know that it was mine.

Summer Vacation

Chris and I at "the hangout" in Gulf Shores, AL

Last week Chris and I spent the week at the beach with his family. It was so NICE!! I don't know who can not like the beach. It so nice to just sit on the beach and read a good book, take a dip in the ocean and pool, stroll on the beach with your loved ones, and really just do nothing. All your worries just disappear. Needless to say I could live at the beach too bad it's not a career option :) ! So if you haven't been to the beach in a while plan at trip, you'll get some much need relaxation and you'll support the gulf beaches

By the way we did see tar balls from the oil spill but it didn't stop us from enjoying the ocean.
