Makin' and maybe bakin' da biscuits

 "I've tried a few different recipes.  But they all turn out the same."



"I don't try to make them too often though.
Lynn doesn't want the mess to clean up.
Who'd think I'd make any kind of mess!"

I must say, Precious, you do keep the flour in the
bowl fairly well.  It's the eggs I worry about.


And I think you are needing to do less kneading, as they
may come out a bit tough.

Thursday morning March 19




Last Friday morn,  the 13th, I said this week would be a humdinger.
Well it started on the 13th with 60 to 70 MPH wind that raged
like a locomotive loose on the rails.  By early afternoon trees
were dropping,  utility poles were snapping in two, and
sub stations were going down.  Over 250,000 in Ohio
lost power while the temps were going down into the teens.
We were lucky and only went 30 hours with out heat.
And it has not warmed up yet.  So much for March 20!
How grateful we are to the out of state linemen who
came to our rescue where we live.





Thanks for stopping by for a visit and a comment.
It is much appreciated.

Our weather has turned for the better, sunshine
'ALL' week, dry, but still a little chilly...it's coming
up eight o'clock, and the sun is shinning through
the Paddington Bear curtains....Lovely!

I'm afraid this is all l have regarding the video...
'Video is unavailable'....can't open it, will look at
it later, see if l can..! :(

And, tell Mum to give you an egg to play with,
still in it's shell of course, great fun rolling about
on the floor, and, sometimes they crack open,
HeHe! what a mess...! Have fun....! :O).

Rats, the video wouldn't load for me. You do look like you make THE BEST biscuits, though, Precious. 😻❤️

First day of Spring and we're having more 🀬 snow. I. Cannot. Take. Anymore. Of. This.

Whey~Hey.....
A simple 3-ingredient biscuit recipe uses 2 cups self-rising flour, 1/2 cup cold butter (grated), and 1 cup heavy cream or buttermilk. Mix ingredients until just combined, shape, and bake at 450°F for 10-15 minutes....
For a sweeter, cookie-style biscuit, mix 500g margarine, 1 cup sugar, and 5 cups flour, baking at 180°C for 15 minutes.....! :O).

Being without your heat and electricity for 30 hours is very hard to do in the winter. Are those mini-daffies? We see them along one of our walks and we only see green leaves - no flowers yet. Biscuits are so yummy!

There is always plenty of room for biscuits sweet Precious! That's some awful wind, I'm sure glad you are okay!

Oh noes, it's dreadful that so many went without power.
Henry made biscuits this morning; the first time I've seen him do it.
