Bogue Sound RV Monthly Newsletter

MANAGER’S MESSAGE

Happy Spring everybody!

Even though it may not feel quite like it yet, the signs are all around, new growth appears and things begin to turn green.

A quick recap since last month, our first ladies’ luncheon was a great success with 22 in attendance. Game nights are very popular with Left Right Center and Bingo being well attended, and many more are planned with different games to be announced. Check out the April calendar on page __ for future events.

We are planning events for all our holidays this season and as well as starting a Cornhole tournament which would take place in September.

We love our community, the goodwill and friendships made around the park and through these events are wonderful and what makes BSRV Resort the best place to be! We encourage everyone to join in when you can and if you have any ideas you’d like to share for an activity, I’m always glad to hear. This time of year is the perfect time to clear away winter debris from our lots and get ready for outdoor living once again, yaahhh!

I hope everyone is well and look forward to seeing you all soon! We have many new faces around so please say hello and make your new neighbors feel welcome.

As the weather warms remember that there are several outdoor games stored down by the waterfront including cornhole, please feel free to use them, and please return them to the icehouse when you are finished. Please remember to clean up and remove any trash or items you bring with you to the sound front. This is a natural and national treasure, please respect these beautiful waterways we are so lucky to share.

HOPPY Spring y’all!

Strawberry-Buttermilk Cobbler

INGREDIENTS

• 5 cups hulled fresh small strawberries, halved

• 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon spelt flour (such as Arrowhead Mills) (about 4 1/2 ounces) or whole-wheat flour, divided

• 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons cane sugar or granulated sugar, divided

• 1/2 cup super-fine almond flour (such as Bob’s Red Mill) (about 1 3/4 ounces)

• 2 teaspoons baking powder

• 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

• 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter (3 ounces)

• 3/4 cup whole buttermilk

• 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar

• Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss together strawberries, 1 tablespoon spelt flour, and 2 tablespoons cane sugar in a 9-inch square baking dish until coated. Set aside.

2. Stir together almond flour, baking powder, salt, remaining 1 cup spelt flour, and remaining 1/3 cup cane sugar in a medium bowl. Grate cold butter using largest holes of a box grater into spelt flour mixture. Using clean fingertips, toss together spelt flour mixture and butter. Gradually add buttermilk, mixing together using fingertips until dry ingredients are just moistened. With lightly floured hands, shape dough evenly into 6 (1/2-inch-thick) patties. Arrange patties evenly on strawberry mixture in baking dish; sprinkle with turbinado sugar.

3. Bake in preheated oven until topping is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly, about 20 minutes. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
