    This recipe is just the way my Mama used to make for us,when we were kids(there were 5 of us). She used to send all 5 out in the field,outback of our house,and then she would fix this recipe,(except she called it Blackberry Cobbler). That's what I had always thought the name was,and I was looking for this recipe,and until now,I could never find it.Once again,thanks for the recipe,and the memories. Weezy

    I spent 4 months in Oregon last summer picking blackberries on my sisters 40+ acres. I got pricked a lot by those thorns!A lot of good memories though. Thank-you for posting these recipes. I will print and take them with me on my next trip there.
