Happy Father's Day to all of the dad's today that have given so much of themselves, their time and their talents! We love you and appreciate you very much!
I loved this poem I found on Pinterest and I think it pretty much sums up all that we feel about the men in our lives that we love so much!
Whether it be your own father, the father to your children or the father of your grandchildren... or a grandfather you feel close to…I hope today you take a little time to hug their necks and tell them how much you appreciate all that they do for you!
After spending an entire week in Hilton Head with our children Jim says he feels extremely blessed as a father! I'm so glad he enjoyed that time with them!
And just to add a bit of extra sweetness to this Sunday's post…
how about the Peach Cobbler my mom is making for tonight!
Yummy!!
Have a wonderful week and I hope your Father's Day celebrations were all wonderful!
Here is a recipe for an easy peach cobbler that I found on Pinterest as well! Can you tell I'm tired from being gone for a week?! I promise next week will be recipes from scratch but I just couldn't pass this one up because it looks so good to me! I will share my mom's recipe as well hopefully later tonight or tomorrow!
Peel, halve, and pit the peaches. Slice each half into 3 or 4 wedges.
Combine the peaches, ¼ cup of the sugar, and the cornstarch in a large mixing bowl. Let the fruit stand, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves, 5 to 7 minutes.
Make the dough: Cream together the butter and remaining ½ cup sugar in a medium mixing bowl with a wooden spoon or an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in the egg, vanilla, and lemon zest until the batter is smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl once or twice as necessary.
Add the flour, baking powder, and salt and stir until just combined.
Transfer the peaches to an 8-inch square-baking pan. Drop the dough in rounded tablespoonfuls over the fruit.
Bake until the fruit is bubbling and the crust is golden, 50 to 55 minutes. Let the cobbler cool slightly and serve it warm.
