Nan’s Biscuit Lesson
I LOVED baking biscuits with Nan
So many styles and sorts of biscuits!
Long, short, fat, thin, round, rectangular, square - even triangular ones!
Some topped with chopped nuts, icing patterns or rainbow sprinkles
Some smothered in smooth white, milk or - my FAVOURITE - dark chocolate
Some containing crinkly raisins, super-sweet jam or yummyscrummy buttercream filling
But every type of biscuit she created was TOTALLY DELICIOUS
And although each was very different from the next
They all had the same three basic ingredients
Flour, butter, sugar
I thought that was AMAZING
I always laughed when Nan used to say that her biscuits were just like people
How could a biscuit be like a person?
Now, I’m a bit older and wiser
I finally understand what she meant by that
DO YOU?
