Linda’s Cookies

primary “What kind of cookies are these?” my father asked as he tapped the lightly browned baked good against his plate. My little teen-aged heart was crushed.

That hard round cookie-shaped thing he was tapping wasn’t a cookie but my first attempt at making biscuits. My mama had a way with biscuits. I didn’t.

Mama’s hand-formed biscuits would come out like little bits of Southern heaven (mine were like the other place). Every Southern meal had to have some bread in it, you know, or it wasn’t a Southern meal; it was just a snack.

So, in tribute to my mother (and my inspiring daddy), here is my biscuit recipe—the one I use now. Slightly adapted from my friend, the BHG New Cook Book.

Between Two Worlds: The Spiritual Journey of an Evangelical Catholic

Introducing the new blog alliance devoted to Non~Fiction books, Non~FIRST, a component of Fiction in Rather Short Takes (FIRST). This is our very first blog tour. Normally, we will post every 15th day of every month, featuring an author and his/her latest book’s FIRST chapter!

The special feature author is: Mike Timmis and his book: Between Two Worlds: The Spiritual Journey of an Evangelical Catholic (NavPress, February 2008)

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Mike Timmis had it all.

How does a kid from working-class Detroit become an international ambassador for Christ? And what motivated an evangelical-based ministry to choose this Catholic as its chairman? Mike Timmis’s inspiring life as a Catholic and evangelical leader reveals how our unity in Christ transcends the two worlds’ differences. From him, we learn how Catholics and evangelicals can go into an alienated world together as ministers of reconciliation and witnesses to God’s salvation and love.

Cookies!

Okay, I’m giving fair warning, I’m going to be very silly. I can’t help it, Ty’s blog is so CUTE! Who can resist blogging about COOKIES????

When I first “met” Ty on the internet, she gave a link to her blog CookieAisle.com, and I just about died because it looked so yummy. I also thought she had the most fabulous theme for a blog anybody could come up with. Who doesn’t like cookies?
