<p>This recipe and its picture seem like the very same way my Mother made peach cobbler.&nbsp; She was born and raised in Tennessee, moved permantly to Colorado when she married.&nbsp; She was still a southern cook always!&nbsp; I am happy to get this and as soon as we get some good peaches in Montana I'll be making it.&nbsp; Oh, by the way, my son, the Technique Geek, probably&nbsp; has a spin on this ---we'll see!&nbsp; Great magazine, by the way.&nbsp; The photography makes you want to lick the page</p>
