summer at its finest

Yum. I made this berry cobbler for dessert last weekend for our first dinner party in our new apartment. We had our upstairs neighbors down! They are such a cute, young couple with an adorable 2-month old daughter with vertical dark brown hair. Wishing I would've taken more pics!! Anyway, I knew this recipe was a winner when our neighbor Olivier (a Frenchman with lofty French cuisine standards) expressed genuine contentment. :) I cannot take the credit, it was 99% delicious, fresh ingredients. So before summer ends, I highly recommend you grab your favorite berries and experience this delish dish for yourself! Oh, and my recipe's inspiration is from Easy Suppers, one of my staple cookbooks.
