Father's Day

To all the Father's in my life, I want to say Happy Father's Day!! You are all wonderful at the role you play. And you all work hard to deserve a day all of your own. Thank you for being such great dads!!


This year our father's day was very fun. Yesterday we went to an Angel's game with John's brother and dad. Then today I was going to make John my family's traditional Father's Day breakfast, but my mom called this morning and asked if we wanted to come over there for breakfast. So we came over to mom's and make the breakfast here where we all could enjoy it. It is such a good breakfast. Extremely delicious, yet we only make it twice a year. Mother's day and Father's day. Sometimes John requests them other times of the year and i oblige, but for some reason they seem more special on holidays.

And what is it you are asking??

Betty Crocker's Cinnamon Puffs!!!


Heat Oven to 450º

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/4 c. shortening
3/4 c. milk (I've been using 1 c.)
1/3 c. butter (I normally need more)
1/2 c/ sugar
2 tsp. cinnamon (more if you like more cinnamon flavor)


Stir together in a bowl flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in the shortening. The mixture should be crumbly. Stir in milk just until mixture holds together and forms a ball. Knead the dough about 20 times to smooth it out. Then divide into small balls (about 16) and place on a greased cookie sheet. Bake 10 - 12 minutes. While these are baking, melt the butter in a bowl. Then mix together the cinnamon and sugar. When the biscuits are done, while still warm dip them in the butter and roll them in the cinnamon and sugar mixture (the more covered the better). Place on platter & enjoy!!
