Biscuit Bliss

We have new teammates from England. We LOVE them! They are so fun. They were on the field for 10 years in China before they were asked to leave! So, now they are here!

It has been so fun to realize the differences in American and English culture. There are so many! One thing that cracks me up is that they call cookies or sweet crackers (graham crackers) biscuits. I've been trying to explain to them what we call biscuits. Well, all the talk about biscuits has made me crave the wonderful pillows of buttery yummyness! I have been scouring the internet for recipes that contain ingredients we can get here. Also, I have been watching tutorials on how to make them. I guess you can say I was a little intimidated by the thought of making the perfect biscuit!

Today, I did it! I made the best biscuits. It wasn't hard at all, and they were fantastic! We ate them with butter and fresh jam! OH MY GOODNESS!! WE HAVE BEEN MISSING OUT!!! I had to stop the kids at 3! Good thing there was no one around to stop me...ha ha!

Now, I just need to invite our new friends over to show them what REAL biscuits are!!





Maybe next time I'll attempt something like this... if only I could find a pig to slaughter (and orange cheese!)!
