baking day...............

as long as i have spent in the kitchen today................i would expect a yummy tasting morsel .......................it has instead been one of those days of everything going wrong........hopefully by days end, it will be better results ...............................i started off trying to make civil war hard tack.......wrong recipe i guess, ended up making faux biscuits..................a faux bread that was supposed to take 20 min. (HA!) has taken 4 hrs..................................
 my standby, made dozens of times before, is plum puddings........................hope they come out okay
all this work..........................................and........................not a bite to eat !

........................................................ i am blessed !

I think I have a reciepe for civil war hard tack.

Just remember that they say hard tack could break a tooth. Accounts state that CW soldiers would have to soak their hard tack to make it almost edible. Some accounts say that shoe leather would be more edible. I bet your biscuits are not that far off.
