My bread usually sucks but today I made two. A plain one the wife and I ate, and one with Everything but the Bagel seasoning. The plain one was delicious. The other one was for my father but I didn't see him for Father's Day.

Normally we get him old scotch but we're saving for a road trip. I mean hell, we ate bread for dinner. What was that book about Pip and the criminal? They ate bread and butter. I did make a honey butter blend, that was tasty.

I'll see him later today and give it to him. His mother used to make homemade bread and my Mom is like fuck that noise. I don't blame her, bread is hard. But I thought he'd like it and it's way cheaper than good scotch.

Ok, well if you're making bread anyway you have to try these:

It works well with slightly diluted half and half, if you're feeling fancy. Salted butter, 2 tsp salt instead of the one-- flavorless biscuits are a sin. They're good plain, but if you add in maybe 1/2 tsp garlic powder and 4 oz of finely shredded seriously sharp Cabot cheese. Possibly something else, but I'm bouncing around on around 2 braincells right now and most recipes that I alter are just grandma-style where it's random piches and handfuls of whatever I'm feeling at the time.

Edit: Don't fuck with the dough too much. Get it together, fold it over 4-5 times, and roll it out to about 1/2 inch. Use a sharp knife and just slice out the biscuits that way.
