mmm…Cobbler…
Posted April 16th, 2009 by Samantha Grass
My husband is a chef…or cook, or whatever you want to call him (sometimes simply, Hey You). He makes amazing food. I’m always very challenged when cooking for him or by myself as he’s, well, the expert when it comes to cooking. This past Sunday, however, I one-upped him!
I was seriously hankerin’ for some homemade pie or pastry of some sort. I sifted through some recipes in the countless cookbooks lining our shelves and came up with a lovely blackberry cobbler that sounded so delicious I could practically smell it’s baked sweetness rising from the page.
I immediately set out with husband and trusty dog to Ridgewood, Queens (only a few blocks away) to get some fresh fruit from one of the produce stands run by some local Polish families.
For $5 in blackberries I was able to make this amazing dish:

The breeze floating through our windows, fresh flowers tinting the air with just a hint of spring and that amazing biscuit smell emitting from the oven were all the things I needed to make my day perfect.
I took some shots of the cobbler on our glass coffee table while it cooled in front of the window to waft the alluring scent through the loft. Thomas obliged by cooking an accompanying dinner. We finished our day with amazing food and Marley and Me…to which I cried…copiously.
It was a perfect Sunday…
