Well I would have to say we really enjoyed this weeks recipe much better then last week! The rhubarb and cherries were excellent together, the tart rhubarb with the sweet cherries, perfect! It also worked out well because my Moms birthday was this week and her favorite fruits are cherries and rhubarb. We did add a zest of one orange to the dough and added some more fruit as it seemed to need more filling. We also cut the cobbler dough into hearts for a more girly feel for her party! All together I really liked it but would have to say I enjoyed the mixed berry cobbler we made a few weeks ago better. (for TWD) Oh, I almost forgot since we are living in Texas we have not been able to find any rhubarb, the last week when we found out that we were supposed to make this we realized that our parents were going to Michigan for a surprise anniversary party for some friends so we asked our Mom to try and find some, she returned with lots of rhubarb and fresh cherries! Perfect for our cobbler! So we had imported fruit:)

How wonderful that this worked for your Mom's birthday, and that you were able to have fresh fruit for your cobbler! Looks yummy!
That is so sweet for your mom! And I love that you were lucky enough that she was able to find the rhubarb in Michigan! Gorgeous!
looks so great - the perfect thing for your mom, esp with the hearts!!
Happy Birthday to your mom. I'm sure she really appreciated this perfect dish from her perfect girls with perfect fruit.:)
That was smart to "import" the fruit!
Well, this recipe really came at a good time for you, huh? Great job.
what perfect timing for this dessert! glad your mum was able to get the fruit and you were able to make it for her!
Perfect timing, and adorable hearts! Great job!
the orange zest sounds like a good addition. love the hearts. :)
Looks delicious. Your Mom must have been happy!
Not only did this work perfectly for your Mom's b-day but she was able to get you fresh rhubard. Making hearts for the topping is also very cute! =D

Great job! glad you liked this recipe better than last week.
Imported fruit! nice!

Lovely cobbler! And what a nice birthday present for your mother. I'm in San Antonio, TX, and I had to go to a couple stores for rhubarb, and even then, it didn't look so crisp! Good thinking on getting it from a colder climate.
Self-imported fruit, always a great thing. Love the heart-shaped topping!
that is great that you managed to get rhubarab. hope you enjoyed it!
What a lovely birthday cobbler! Great idea using "hand-imported" fruit. They grow great cherries in Michigan!
I wouldn't have been able to get heart shapes with my wet batter! That looks great! I like your idea of adding orange to the fruit medley. Great idea!
