Molly's been here working on her LAST paper all weekend and it's been a wonderful summer-like couple of days. And what's better on summer days than a juicy watermelon at your beck and call. Just set it out and let people slice off what they want. The sink is close by .....perfect for standing over with a slice in your hand. So much less formal than asking people if they want any...than getting a plate out.....then washing the plate when they're done. Anyhow it worked for us this weekend.....not so sure about when the grand kids are here.......might be a tad sticky!
By the way I would love to be able to grow watermelon, but it just isn't warm enough up here ...........some days that's hard for me to believe!!!
However the tomatoes are really starting to take off and it looks like a bumper crop of blackberries and raspberries!Farmhouse Berry Cobbler
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 cube butter
Heat fruit and juice to boiling on stove or in microwave. Melt butter in
9x13" pan that you're going to bake cobbler in. Mix flour, sugar, water and baking powder to
make a batter. Pour batter over melted butter, then pour boiling fruit over batter. Bake
in 350' oven until done......approx. 15-20 minutes. Serve with vanilla ice cream if you're
really bad!!!
