I have the kind you drop by spoonfuls into soup or stew quite often. I'll have to try the ones you told me about. They sound delicious. And you and your husband are right....nothing can beat homemade!

For me, it is much more practical for those days when the stairs become problematic. And I am spoiled. I love the taste of homemade. It really isn't hard to do.

We can go through so much bread daily. A family of 6 with the oldest still in Fla. Sorry I missed this post the other day.

But give me a steak and a grill, and I will wreck that steak every time.

I fear that so many of the basic self-sufficiency skills are being lost. I feel better knowing that with each new skill they learn, the better they will be able to take care of themselves should the need arise.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-62627436430939630582014-01-30T17:03:58.636-06:002014-01-30T17:03:58.636-06:00I'm having one of those old fart moments, when...I'm having one of those old fart moments, when I just about pee my pants with excitement at seeing a younger generation sampling self-sufficiency and learning the things so many take for granted. <br /><br />I'm thinking you might have been instrumental in the inspiration; just by example. <br /><br />That's a good thing and you should be proud.
