how to combine the results of two variables to echo another variable?

Hello,
I'm a somewhat PHP newbie, so please bear with me.

Here is what I am trying to do:

$foobar = "blah blah";
$a = "foo";
$b = "bar";
$fooboo = "$a" . "$b";
echo $fooboo

I know my syntax here is not correct so I am looking for the function
to make $fooboo echo out the $foobar variable "blah blah", and not as
"foobar".

Any help is appreciated.
