Merry Christmas from the Peach State! Jacob's there visiting his cousin Ava, and together they'll have a Southern-style holiday hiking the Appalachian Trail, wandering through the Gold Museum, and touring the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site in Atlanta among other great finds in Georgia!

Recipes: START UPSIDE DOWN PEACH COBBLER
2 cups fresh peaches (peeled and sliced)
(1 can peaches can be substituted)
1/2 to 1 cup sugar
Optional: 1/2 tsp cinnamon and/or 1/2 tsp almond extract
1 stick butter
3/4 - 1 cup self-rising flour
2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
1 cup milk
Preheat oven to 350°.
Melt butter in bottom of baking dish. Mix flour, baking powder and salt together. Pour in pan with butter. Mix peaches with sugar (and cinnamon and extract if you like). Gently pour peaches and juice on top of batter. Don't stir! Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes. Everything on the bottom will float to the top!
Cool (just a little). Serve with vanilla ice-cream and a Southern "Here ya go, y'all."
