fairyrune-I made buttermilk biscuits with half bacon fat & half butter Saturday night. They came out quite tasty, but not terribly bacon-y. I think next time, I'll do full bacon fat along with bacon crumbles. Probably not any time soon, as the next batch I make will most likely be for Thanksgiving.
-My biscuits were square, as the biscuit cutter I once had decided to rust. I tried to find a new one at the mall yesterday, but was unsuccessful. Mind you, I could have gotten a set of five different sizes for sixteen dollars at Williams Sonoma, but who needs five different sized biscuit cutters? Unless I can make it down to Le Gourmet Chef before next Thursday, I may have to resort to using a can with both ends cut out. Or just make square ones again. Or maybe triangles, like I do with scones! Hmmm...::ponders::
-I did manage to get a pretty sweet roast pan at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. It can hold up to a thirty pound turkey, is non-stick, came with a "V" rack, and cost me less than twenty bucks! Sthcore!
-I also found a pair of shoes to wear to the wedding I'm in next April. They're very cute, but I'm not 100% sold on them yet. I figured it would be better to pick them up right then rather than wait. They're returnable for a full refund within thirty days, and for store credit after that. Apparently, it's nigh-on impossible to find inexpensive, dressy, low heels that aren't ugly.
-I successfully finished watching the final season of Fraggle Rock without bawling like a baby.
-The TSO concert is less than a month away, and I am very excited!
