LJ Coding Woes
I've been coding today. I had to sort out some messes with a Bloggish layout for
txrabbit. The new customize wizard that LJ has been a bit of a booger. It does make things easier for those wishing to just copy and paste a layout and have at it. But you know me and my endless fiddling. Apparently the new system is fiddle-proofed. You fiddle with it and it just puts up a blank page and says, "Oh yeah?! Well take this!!! See how you like it now!!!"
...or something.
New Blogger Layout
I'll have to make myself a new layout soon. To make myself feel better before I do that, I hooked myself up with a new layout from
carriep63's website for my Blogger - http://saifaifox.blogspot.com/. Though now that I've done that I might actually have to update the damn thing. *moop*
Stalling Now
Okay. Back to the drawing board. I'm actually only stalling on the one last image needed for miss rabbit's layout. I'm doing it now, I swear!
P.S.
I gave up on the hamburger bun recipe. However, I did find in my family's cookbook a lovely recipe for both potato rolls (which work great for hamburgers), and angel biscuits. Angel biscuits are an all time fav of mine. Thought I'd share the recipe for those that are interested:
P.S.S. This is a recipe I found online for the biscuit, not the one that's actually in my cookbook. I'm sure it can't be all that different. On a side note for this biscuit, you can freeze them and save them to cook as you need them. Our recipe tells us to just throw the dough in a tupperware container and sit it in the fridge. Another recipe site says you can just cut the biscuits out and freeze them like that to just throw in the oven as you need. Either way they're good.

Angel Biscuits
Ingredients:
- 1 package active dry yeast (about .25 ounce)
- 1/4 cup warm water, about 110° F.
- 2 cups warmed buttermilk, about 110° F.
- 5 to 5 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 3/4 cup chilled shortening
- 4 tablespoons chilled butter
- melted butter
Preparation:
Dissolve the yeast in the 1/4 cup of warm water. Set aside.In a large mixing bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal, with some small pea-size pieces of fat. Stir in yeast mixture and buttermilk, blending well. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead with floured hands just a few turns. Pat into a round about 1/2-inch thick. Cut with 2- to 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutters. Place cut out biscuits on a lightly greased baking sheet. Cover with a dish cloth and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes. Bake at 400° for about 15 to 20 minutes. Brush tops with the melted butter while still hot. Makes about 2 to 3 dozen angel biscuits, depending on size.
P.S.S. This is a recipe I found online for the biscuit, not the one that's actually in my cookbook. I'm sure it can't be all that different. On a side note for this biscuit, you can freeze them and save them to cook as you need them. Our recipe tells us to just throw the dough in a tupperware container and sit it in the fridge.
