Homemade Drop Biscuits

Hello from the Blizzard of Oz! That's what the weather people were calling yesterday's snowstorm.  Kind of fitting since we live in Kansas.  It was one heck of a blizzard that's for sure.  Tons of snow, wind and bitterly cold temperatures.  The wind has made some incredible snow drifts.  The drifts make it hard to… Continue reading Homemade Drop Biscuits

Oatmeal Bars

Saturday.  I didn't think you would ever get here.  Benzo and I both had stressful, busy weeks at work.  So are we ever glad to see Saturday.  I still might have to work a little bit today or tomorrow, but it shouldn't be anything too crazy.  I will be very glad when January is over!… Continue reading Oatmeal Bars

Healthy Breakfast for a Crowd

Yesterday I woke up to cloudy skies.  I was hoping to get outside for some yard work, but I dawdled around the house too long, writing about the best chocolate cake ever.  Before I knew it the clouds opened up and dumped rain all over everything.  And they continued to do that until the afternoon.… Continue reading Healthy Breakfast for a Crowd
