Yeah!

It appears that my humble little blog has reached the attention of a French website (http://en.petitchef.com/) asking if they could add my blog! 

I guess this means that I will have to dust off my French cookbooks and start posting new recipes.  Thank Goodness, I just found a new (to me) vintage French cookbook a couple of weekends ago at Goodwill.  If you haven't visited your local Goodwill to check out their vintage cookbooks....Run....There....NOW!  It is a virtual library for amazing, diverse cookbooks. 

Anyway, thought I would share the great news with all of my loyal readers.  You know who you are!

Pumpkin Cobbler-- For Dad and Kristen

It's Fall...the temperatures are falling (yes, even here in Charleston), and my heart longs for tastes of home.  Fortunately, this wonderful pumpkin cobbler fits the bill in many ways-- it takes less than 10 minutes to get in the oven, it tastes divine, adn it's the perfect dish for those of us who don't like pie crust.  It can also be served warm or cold! 

So, grab a nice warm cup of apple cider, a dish of this cobbler and celebrate the season.

Pumpkin Cobbler

1 lg. can pumpkin pie mix (with the spices and sugar already added.)
4 eggs, beaten
1 can evaporated milk
1 yellow cake mix
1 c. melted butter
2 tbsp. brown sugar (optional)
1/2 c. almonds or walnuts (optional)
