I whipped this up this morning and it was too good not to share real quick. In fact as I typing my 3 year old is ordering his third piece. For a kid who has barely ate for the past four days and has been running a low-grade temperature, I’m happy to serve him up [...]

Here’s a recipe to keep in your back pocket as we approach the holiday season – really fantastic biscuits. At their best, biscuits are a little bite of heaven.

Tonya and I are going to be taking a break from teaching classes this month (with the exception of one on 3/18), so we can spend some much needed time on a new website/blog. While this one has served it’s purpose, we have grand ideas for a really great and informative website and can’t [...]
