      Hi Lynn!

      Thanks for stopping by! I like the idea of cobbler for breakfast. It isn’t very sweet so ice cream or whipped cream is a nice addition. It’s good to eat ice cream for breakfast, right? 😉

      Hope you are staying well. And safe from these nasty thunder storms!

      XOXO Lorraine
