Welcome to Bourbon & Biscuits.

     I like to peruse the TV and web for new ideas or better ways to make the basics. After surfing a few food blogs - including one that a friend recently started - I decided to give it a try. Since I trade recipes with friends over the phone I figured this would be a pragmatic way to share them. Also I tend to be pretty forgetful. Why not keep my favorite new ideas all in one place?
     As to the title, it seems you have to get creative with these things. But be meaningful, or you end up with something witty but empty - like a tattoo you regret. Then again, a blog title is more easily removed.
     Be responsible with your tattoos, kids!

     Bourbon. It's the American whiskey. It's more American than apple pie. It helped chart the course of our country, and I like it.

     Biscuits. While southerners don't have the corner market on these, they are a staple. Both of my grandmothers and my mother are great southern cooks. I learn from them still.

     In closing, when I figure something out that works, I'll share it. There will be a lot of experimentation in between. I'm a self-admitted newbie at this! Still, it seems like it will be a fun way to learn and share. So, feel free to give these a try, have a seat, and give thanks to your Maker for the sustenance He provides.
     Then, grab that fork and enjoy!
