Harvest Fare

It's that time of year again.  Gary, Meagan, and Nathan are working long hours in the field, and Autumn is working long hours at the elevator.  Since Autumn is 7 months pregnant and spending long hours on her feet, she's pretty tired by the time she gets home about 7:30 at night.  I've been cooking enough for supper to feed all of us.  I decided to make chicken and noodles today and a peach cobbler, along with some of the green beans we canned this year.

 4 eggs-worth of noodle dough

 Noodles left to dry

Peach cobbler....recipe follows

Easy Berry Cobbler

1/4 cup butter

3/4 cup milk

1 cup sugar

1 cup flour

 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

2 cups fruit (peaches, apples, cherries, blueberries)

1/4 to 1 cup sugar, depending on fruit used

Melt butter in 8"x8" pan.  Mix milk, sugar, flour, and baking powder.  Pour over melted butter.  Do not stir.  Pour on fresh fruit.  Sprinkle sugar on top depending on fruit used.  Drain fruit if using canned fruit.  Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.

I used a large can (30 oz.) of peaches tonight.  I have also used blueberries.  This literally takes less than 10 minutes to mix up.  And so good!
