Overnight stay I love this overnight refrigerator roll recipe when I don’t have any bread or other rolls prepared for Sunday lunch. I mix it up Saturday evening and toss it into the refrigerator (well, I don’t exactly toss it, but you know what I mean). Be sure to use regular flour instead of bread flour, as the recipe calls.

I don’t make it as often as I make other bread, so every once in a while Dave has to remind me that this is his favorite, … Read more

Then I married a Yankee-became-southern-after-a-move-man, and we raised our kids in southern Virginia – where hand-squished biscuits are often served all three meals of the day. Only problem was, I didn’t know a thing about making this kind of biscuits. If I can learn, so can you! Where I got this … Read more
