Because I've always wanted to. Because it would make my Grandma proud. Because to bake my way through this book is a new goal I have established. Because I don't want to feed my kids high fructose corn syrup and soy lecithin. Because it really doesn't take that long and isn't difficult at all. Because I never want to run to the grocery store At 10pm on a school night again. Because nothing beats the aroma that fills up the whole house. Because we finally have cool days and even cooler nights. Because this = love.
Besides, you can't have chicken and biscuits without a good homemade biscuit. I also tried the pumpkin muffins (with cranberries) from the Clayton book last week. No photo, but boy were they good.
