    Humor

    My wife asked me to take her to an expensive dinner.  I told her let's get in the truck and go. I took her to the gas station and filled up, bought her a corn dog and a slushie.

     

    I think she is still mad at me.....

     

    Best ALways,  mike

     

    Actually, she made us a wonderful dinner. Satay Pork Tenderloin with Asparagus, and a nice salad.  I get the pump off in a couple of hours.  I will make Sushi tonight for dinner.

    Do I remember a post where you said you make your own graham crackers?   The baby has taken a liking to them and I'd love to be able to make them and not feed him the boxed ones.

Divide into rectangles using a knife. Place rectangles ointo ungreased cookie sheets. Mark a line down the center of each one, and prick with a fork. For a cinnamon flavored cracker, sprinkle with a cinnamon sugar mixture before baking.
    4. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from baking sheets to cool on wire racks.

    This is the link to All Recipes:   http://allrecipes.com/recipe/honey-graham-crackers/

     

    Alton Brown gave me the idea.  I did like this recipe better.  I added 1 more teaspoon of vanilla. (normal for me)

    I also rolled out between two sheets of parchment paper and then the bottom parchment and cookie dough on a cookie sheet into the oven.    Be sure to roll out very thin.  They do gain a little air in the oven. 

     

    I have been making these and giving to neighbors.  A big hit in the neighborhood.  From start to finish in 30 minutes.

    Best Always,  mike
