mom's great cobbler

This recipe started out using canned peaches. These days, we use any kind of fresh fruit we have available. Hy-Vee, one of the supermarkets in Springfield, MO., sells a mix of fresh fruit that includes kiwi, blueberries, strawberries and pineapple. We can polish off a 9x13 dish using that in two days! Fantastic! Mom takes it for pot luck dinners and we're lucky if she brings any home!
