Today was a triumph for me, I baked something, and it actually came out great!  I’m not completely horrible at cooking I just don’t do it often.  Baking is an entirely different story.

I’ve only made one successful batch of brownies in my life and all attempts before that were epic fails.  Let me take you back to Greensboro, circa 2010.  My roommate delegated me with the task of making brownies.  I swear fo Gawd that I followed the instructions to the tee but for some reason instead of making brownies I made something more akin to a brownie soup.  The worst part of it all is that I promised my crush I would save him some and bring them to campus the next day.  I could have put my brownie soup in a bottle and handed him a straw but instead I went to Starbucks and bought a brownie.  I don’t remember why but for some reason I never got to give it to him and ended up eating it. *Kanye shrug* My second attempt didn’t end any better.  That time I created a brownie cake.  I immediately retired from the baking business after that.

Fast forward to the year of our Lord, 2015 when I finally made a successful batch of brownies!  But brownies are simple and they come out of a box.  To really prove that I’m a competent baker I knew I needed more of a challenge and peach cobbler is what I chose.  One day I just started craving peach cobbler and rather than go to Hardee’s and buy some I decided I would save my money and make it!  (Because as we all know, I’m cheap.)  I looked for recipes on Pinterest and after I found one that sounded simple enough for my novice baking skills the planning began!  By planning I mean I contemplated buying the supplies but did not get around to it until many weeks later.

It just so happens that the day I finally decided to make my peach cobbler was Father’s Day.  I was surprised to find out that the majority of the ingredients I needed were already in the kitchen, I just had to buy the peaches.  The recipe I used called for Bisquick but I used Jiffy Mix because it’s what I had and I’m real like that.  Just between you and I there wasn’t enough Jiffy Mix to fill up a cup so I used pancake mix to cover the remaining 3/4’s or so.  (It’s self rising so it’s all good.)  After a little mixing, stirring, and pouring, my creation was ready to go into the oven, after I sprinkled some cinnamon on it of course.

But the trick is to find a good, ethical and reputed supplier tablets viagra online and manufacturers.

Booster capsule, as a great remedy for such anti-impotence medicine cialis levitra viagra treatment. So, before making an order of sildenafil rx you will be completely free from erectile dysfunction. About an hour later dessert was ready and let me tell you that first bite was heavenly!  The only thing that I would do differently next time is use a smaller and deeper pan so that my cobbler is not as thin.  But other than that everything was delicious.  My family loved it, even my sister who isn’t too fond of peaches.  (But I’ve learned to look past that minor flaw in her character.)

I’m extremely proud of myself and I can’t wait to make this dish again and try other recipes.  I’d like to thank God for creating peaches and the person that founded Pinterest and my Mom for being an awesome sous chef.  Oh, and if my crush is reading this I will gladly mail you a piece.

Here is the recipe I used.
