Biscuit babies

Pete went on the internet to find directions to make paper airplanes and he and the boys made planes and flew them in the yard. Free entertainment. I thought that was a pretty cool idea.

I had to work, so hubby made dinner. We never seem to eat up our eggs fast enough and we had bacon that's been in there a while, plus biscuits that I use for Poor People Dessert (I made that name up, ha ha). Anyway, he made Biscuit Babies for dinner. Basically like an egg McBiscuit breakfast sandwich, but a quarter of the size.

Poor People Dessert is pretty good for breakfast, too. Basically use a tube of raw biscuit dough (you know the kind you pop open and then there are discs that you bake). Anyway, cut each disc into quarters and place them in a greased baking dish (square or round cake pan or small rectangle - they should be pretty close together - touching each other). Heat up about 1/4 cup of brown sugar and a tablespoon or two of butter in a pan until hot and liquid, then pour over the biscuits and bake according to the package directions. Num, num!

Money spent today = nada!

Kay has not blogged yet today, but she just dropped some cashola on portraits of her kiddos, so I think I'm ahead. All in all, I've only spent $43.05.
