One of the things I’m good at is throwing together a good summer meal. And an easy dessert, like this Best Strawberry Cobbler Recipe. It’s made with the simplest items–you won’t believe it. And the almond extract? Well, I think this is the “secret” ingredient.

Our first river float this summer

We enjoyed our first kayak float on the river earlier this week. We basked in the sun, and Alder, our 4-year old Whoodle, has finally grown up. No whining, but pure enjoyment. We only saw two other groups floating, so we took it all in … the sounds of the forest and warter, warm sun on our backs, and just being together.

Life is good. And this was his first time to jump from Paul’s boat to mine! 

So back to dessert …

Again, pop the cobbler into the oven right before you sit down for dinner, and have the ice cream ready!

ENJOY!
