Quick update on the vertigo experience. Most unsteady day so far. Remember the commercial for Weebles? Yes, I feel like a Weeble. I skipped a dosage of my meds today. I won’t be doing that again.

Blackberries, raspberries, blueberries. Oh My! Summer berries are plentiful this year thanks to all the spring rain and they are so juicy and delicious. This little recipe appears in a family cook book in the quick and easy section. I tend to like any recipe that starts with the words quick and easy. So – next time company drops in, crank out this cobbler and serve with a little whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. And, don’t be surprised if your guests keeping dropping on in to see you.
Quick and Easy Cobbler
1/2 cup butter (1 stick, melted) – set aside
Mix together:
1 cup self rising flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
Add the melted butter. Butter the bottom of a baking dish and pour in the batter. Scatter the berries on top and then sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Y’all Enjoy!

Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to my sister, Dauna! (No numbers y’all). But – I’m sure she’d feel the same way I do. “No candles on my cake. It would look like the burning of Atlanta.”
For today’s recipe, a cake! Wish I could make it for you in person, Dauna.
Turtle Sundae Cake
1 box German chocolate cake mix
6 Tablespoons margarine
1 package (14 oz.) caramels
1 cup chopped pecans
½ cup evaporated milk
1 cup milk chocolate chips
shredded coconut (optional – which I do not add because coconut is gross)
milk chocolate frosting
Preheat oven to 350 F. Remove the wrapping from caramels and place in the top of a double boiler. Add the evaporated milk and margarine. Place over boiling water to melt.
Stir occasionally. Stir chopped nuts into caramel mixture and blend well.
Mix cake mix according to package directions. Set aside ½ of the batter. Pour the remaining half of the batter into a greased and floured 9 x 13 inch cake pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 18 minutes. Pour the caramel mixture over the cake and sprinkle with chocolate chips and coconut if desired. Pour remaining half of cake batter over the caramel mixture and bake for 20 to 25 minutes longer or until the cake springs back at touch. Cool. Frost with rich and creamy style milk chocolate frosting.
Y’all Enjoy!
