There are multiple reasons, the season of Summer being one of the major contributors. Between Big Winos, a fishing trip on the Texas Gulf Coast, my ... http://www.infowoof.com/WillTravel/?p=164 C is for Cookieeeee!!!! Nom nom nom!!! If that doesn’t bring back flashbacks for my dear readers, you’re either too young to remember, or you grew up living under a rock. As I remember, it didn’t matter what kind of cookies they were, Cookie Monster liked them all. Chocolate ... http://www.infowoof.com/WillTravel/?p=159 It is with some trepidation that I write this post, because I’ve been 3-for-3 so far with the bread, pie dough, and biscuits. Things have been rolling along so smoothly, that I thought I could get through this book with a perfect record. The unattainable could happen, right? Ha. I ... http://www.infowoof.com/WillTravel/?p=135 "Yay, blessed is he who created butter, for he is the father of everything that is good." Richard 2:1 Ok, so I don't really have a bible book, chapter and verse devoted to me, but I should.  Seriously.  But whoever created butter should be extolled upon high.  At least given a ... http://www.infowoof.com/WillTravel/?p=129 Note:  This is a long posting today.  What can I say? There's a lot of little details for making good pie dough.  Pour a big cup of coffee or your favorite adult beverage, sit back, and enjoy the ride.  Once we reach our cruising altitude of 10,000 feet, you may ... http://www.infowoof.com/WillTravel/?p=113 You know the hardest part about the wine country?

My next thought was to go back and re-read the introductions to Ratio and see how it’s ... http://www.infowoof.com/WillTravel/?p=68 I hate recipes. Most recipes today are terrible. They tend to be extremely vague and offer poor direction, and sadly, they don’t often turn out. Honestly, why should they? There’s too many variables presented with the modern kitchen.
