Can’t go wrong, but go with something others (with expertise) loved and you hated, but also that you were wholly committed to writing. We’re often both our biggest fans, and our worst critics. And good luck!

Great advice, Scotty but I might have to go with Michal’s boobs…

I must offer a writing sample for an internship opportunity. Hyperventilating.

A crumble is one of the easiest improvisational desserts. It’s baked, yes, but it doesn’t require any of the precise measurements of its cobbler or cake cousins.
For just one serving, I used about 1/2 a pound of rhubarb, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1 T. of flour in the rhubarb mixture. For the topping, I used 1/8 c. each of flour, sugar, and hazelnuts, and 1 T. butter. Just a dash of cinnamon and ginger will do. It’s very simple to scale this up and put it in a 9x9 or even 13x9 pan, and you can use other berries or stone fruits as well. Just be sure to adjust the sugar based on how sweet your fruit is in the first place. 
Also, I used raw sugar because it’s what I had on hand, but you can certainly use regular white sugar as well. 

I love this blog and I want to try this so hard.
