Blueberry Cobbler

blueberry cobbler

Fresh July blueberries.  Bubbling in the oven with cobbler topping turning lightly brown.  Served in a bowl with vanilla ice cream melting all over it.  Summer heaven in a bowl!  Tip:  You can cook this for about 25 minutes in the morning, ahead of when you want to serve it and then just finish in the oven later when you want to eat it.
