Games Or Gifts For Stroke Victims

And finally ... the rain!

Finally, after a week of warm-destructive, this night there was a good time. Not that I have anything against the heat, but with all this nice weather I have not turned the oven for a whole week! Also, Friday morning I went out to buy a dress, and returning to the center I stopped in a bookstore ... Of course the first thing I did was fly very department in the "kitchen" to browse, so I came across this book that, despite the initial distrust (it seemed strange that he had such a low price), I decided to buy. Now, I do not know if it happens to you, but when I have a new recipe for the hands and, looking through, I review many recipes, each one better than the other, I always have an unbridled desire to try to prepare at least one, both for whether it was worth buying the book:)
So, this morning, after some difficulty (I open the fridge and I realize I have less than a pound of butter and to be completely run out of milk!), helped by freshness donated by the torrential rain of the night, I turned on the oven to 180 degrees and I started to cook one of the simplest recipes in the book, the biscuits with coffee, just be sure not to damage ... The result was excellent and the aroma is given off which was fantastic!
Below we report the complete recipe on the side with the changes that I made ... Bon appetit;)
