Blackberry Crisp.

This recipe is a family favorite.  My mother-in-law would make this for us during the summers that we lived with them.  Instead of using blackberries she would use rhubarb.  It was the most heavenly dessert I had ever had.  The best thing about this recipe is you can substitute the rhubarb for a variety of different fruit.  I usually just use whatever happens to be in season at the time.  Right now it's blackberry season, so blackberry crisp it is!
