First Attempt...

I was off this very hot, humid Monday afternoon and went to our favorite park- Reep Park- to do a photo shoot with two very hot chicks. Josh had done a shoot with one of the girls before, but this time it was her and one of her friends. After the two hour shoot was over, Josh and I were getting ready to pack it up and go home when I annoyed him and said, "Can we go pick some blackberries?" There are several wild vines on the path down to the water and trails, so we loaded everything up and went back down to pick blackberries.

As we were picking our two quarts I got a bright idea, I'm going to attempt to do a blackberry cobbler. And I must say that it turned out VERY, VERY well. Here's the recipe:

4 cups of fresh blackberries
1 cup of sugar

Cook/simmer over medium or medium-low heat until the syrup forms and the berries are sweet.

1/2 cup oats
1/2 flour
1/2 brown sugar
1/4 cup softened or melted butter

Crumble everything together.

Put the berries into a loaf pan and put the crumble mixture on top of the berries. Bake for about 30-35 minutes. When it comes out, add whip cream or vanilla ice cream and voila--- wonderful blackberry cobbler/crumble.
