We are going down to Florida on August 13th to pick up Luke. He is almost done at Disney. The college work program may have forever ruined Disney for him. I wonder if he will ever go back there, even for a park visit? Maybe in five or ten years.....
Today I am making cookies to send him one last time. We were chatting and both looking at the King Arthur Flour's baking blog online and got really hungry. I am making snickerdoodles, molasses and chocolate chip cookies today. Luke couldn't take it any more and quickly baked up a batch of brownies.
Kevin and Ethan picked some wild blackberries for me, so I made a cobbler - that was delicious. Those have to be my favorite kind of berries! I loved picking these as a kid in upstate NY, and I am glad they grow in Wisconsin. I love this cobbler recipe - the biscuit like dough has no sugar in it, but once you roll up the berries (like a cinnamon roll) and put them in the pan (that has a stick of melted butter in it!) you pour a cup of simple sugar syrup around the cobbler. Once baked, all the liquid is absorbed, and the cobbler is sweet and so flavorful. It's a good way to show off these berries.
