Default Food for today

Some homemade chicken noodle soup with egg mixed in for the
feather soup effect. Made that yesterday.

About to make Mrs.Coombs delicious peach cobbler for snacks
later. I only have a pint of peaches so I'll just halve the
recipe. Very good eats!

Actually, I'm thinking of using the full recipe for batter
and just the half amount of peaches. Not as peachy but good,
I'm guessing.

I've made this easy cobbler many times using various fruit.
It's always a winner.

-----------------------------------------
A cup of sugar , a cup of milk , a cup of flour , 1 1/2 tsp
baking
powder and 1/4 tsp salt makes the batter. Melt a stick of butter
in a
baking dish (in the oven) , pour the batter into the melted
butter and
dump a quart of drained fruit into the center . Bake for one hour
at
350° . Peaches get a sprinkle of ground cloves . We usually use
the
fruit juice and powdered milk for the milk in the batter . Any
canned
fruit will do , fresh fruits usually need some sweetening -
blackberries
benefit from a dash of almond extract .

Â* I'll be sure to tell her how much you have enjoyed it ! Half the
fruit is also a winner , the batter is as good as the fruit IMO . I like
it warmed and with a little cold milk poured over it . Or ice cream ...
vanilla please .

My mother made her cobblers that way with a bit of a variation. The peaches
went into the pan and the batter was gently poured into the pan but no
cloves or cinnamon or baking powder. Also, the juice from the canned
peaches went into the pan as well.

I'm waiting for Angela to get here. We're taking my mom out to lunch. I made
a hominy casserole for dinner. It has bacon, tomato, jalapeño, green pepper
and cheese. I'll have that later.

You'll have it later if you don't come home and find the gardener has
eaten nearly all of it.

He left several weeks ago and... and came back? Is that possible? Can
people leave and come back?

Would that be a bad thing? Do you have gardener envy?

No, no gardener envy; I don't want my oven door shattered even though there
are plenty of appliance repair stores around here unlike Washington.

As Terry mentioned, rather than the cup of milk,
I poured the canned juice into a one cup
measuring cup (a little over half a cup)
then topped it off with milk.

I baked this in a 9x13 dish. Very thin cobbler
but gives more of the crusty crust, especially
the edges and the corners of the pan. That's
the best part. Anyway, it turned out nicely.

No, I said IN THE PAN, not in the thin batter that is being made.

Either way, it's good to add, not toss out.
