Winning More Blog Giveaways!! June 29, 2010
I’ve won quite a few blog giveaways in the last week! This is a picture of two books that I won in two different giveaways! First I won The Last Christian by David Gregory. This was a giveaway that was being hosted by Linda at Linda’s Lunacy. This looks like a very interesting book and I can’t wait to read it! The other book that I won was Muffins and Mayhem: Recipes for a Happy (if disorderly) Life by Suzanne Beecher. This giveaway was hosted by Shawn Ann at Shawn Ann’s World. This book looks so fun with some great recipes! I’ve been so tied up reading books for book reviews that I haven’t had time to start either of these books….but soon I hope!! I have won a few other giveaways and I hope to post about them tomorrow!
If you’re looking for some new blogs to read, be sure to check out Linda’s Lunacy and Shawn Ann’s World. And…don’t forget to enter those blog giveaways! I plan to host my own giveaway next week, so be watching!!

Summertime Baking June 23, 2010
One of the things that I love about summertime, is all of the fresh fruits and veggies that are in season! One of the things that my family really enjoys is fresh fruit cobblers! This week I experimented and made a peach/raspberry cobbler. It was SO good!! And it was even better when we topped it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream…Yum!! I use a recipe that my Mom always used when I was growing up. She always made peach, and used canned fruit. I prefer using fresh fruit and I have made peach, blueberry, blackberry and now, peach/raspberry. The recipe is so simple and easy to remember. But, I’ll warn you….it’s by no means low-calorie!!!
~Melt a stick of butter in a square baking dish.
~Place fresh fruit on top of butter (about 1 cup).
~In a bowl, mix 1 cup self-rising flour, 1 cup sugar and 1 cup milk. Batter may be lumpy. Pour over fruit…do not mix.
~Bake at 350 degrees for about 40 mins. or until golden brown on top.
~ Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
~Enjoy!!!
I’d love to hear some of your favorite summertime recipes!
