A Peek Inside the Parsonage

Call us bad…very, very bad, but I fried donuts for our dessert this week! It was a cool evening and those hot out of the pan donuts smothered in sugar were just begging to be fixed to accompany our meal.  What could I do but oblige?

All it took was a little can with 5 biscuits, my melon baller to make the hole in the middle,  and some hot Crisco.  Here’s the last one browning in the pan (which only takes about 2 minutes).

After the donut is brown they get a little sugar coating.  I added some Pumpkin Pie spice to the sugar and it gave it a great autumn flavor!

Again, the end result…

All you need is a cup of coffee or a glass of milk, and you have the best dessert this side of a Krispy Kreme!  If you’ve never made these, you must.  If it’s been a while, why not pop open a can of biscuits and make a special treat for your clan tonight?

I’d appreciate your prayers.  I’m headed out again tomorrow – this time for a much cooler place than Louisiana!  I’m going to Ketchikan, Alaska to speak at a ladies’ retreat there.  The parson was supposed to be going too, but due to the gas bubble in his eye from the retina surgery, he cannot fly.  God knew this before we did, and we rest in His wisdom.  My twin sis is going in his place, so look out Alaska, it’s double trouble coming your way!  =)  Thank you for your prayers, friends.
