MMMM! Lucky you. Ours are still in the blossom stage here in East Tennessee. Will have to wait awhile for that particular treat. Here's an easy recipe. Mix together 1 C each of sugar and self rising flour; add 1 C milk and stir just until mixed. Meantime, melt 1 stick butter or margarine in a casserole dish. Swirl the butter around and pour the melted butter into the batter. Mix it a little and pour it all back in the casserole dish. Top it with 1 Cup of fresh blackberries and bake at 350 for about 35 minutes or until just a little brown on top. Easy, fast and really good.

WOW!!!!!!! :shock: :shock: Sure wish I was there to go pickin' with you!!!!!!! My grandma and I used to walk along her road and pick until we didn't have any room left in our buckets. We would then return to her house, sort through them, clean them, and make the best blackberry jams and jellies and of course, she ALWAYS had to make me a blackberry cobbler!!!!! :D :D She would can them, feeze them, eat them out-of-hand, make pies, cobblers, cook them and put dumplings in them, and as I said before make yummy jams and jellies!!!!! Enjoy your bounty!!!!!!
Thanks a lot!!! Now I'll have to take a break and wipe the drool off my keyboard!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
