Hi Yvona, My husband and i visited Lake Placid and area September, 2019. Every few years we do so. Found your Mixed Berry Cobbler in newspaper; decided to make it for friends when we returned to CT; after all, it was a little piece of our vacation story. Was a BIG hit; I used 3 cups: one of strawberries, one blackberries; the other raspberries. So delicious!! i think you need the three cups; two would have been skimpy. Wanted to thank you for the recipe and let you know who is emulating your baking!! Sincerely, Sallyanne Ferrero
Thank you so much Sallyanne! It’s great to connect with readers of my column and my books! Here is a link to my Amazon page which also includes the cookbook. https://www.amazon.com/Yvona-Fast/e/B001K86HLM?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1568719885&sr=8-1
Elaine and I prepared Apples and Onions and, it turned out great! Elaine said it seemed we were in a high=class restaurant. We are happy we used your recipe.
