Something Southern Sunday: Biscuit Blues

I was prepared to present you with the biscuits at the top left hand side, there. I wasn't really proud of them.  They were the most tender biscuits I had tested so far, but they didn't have the flavor I've been searching for.

Whole Wheat Oatmeal and Chocolate Chip Cookies

I do not like raisins. Ok, I kind of like them if they are covered in chocolate or sometimes if they are golden. My sister despises them so much that she tells people she is allergic, which I guess is true of anything you dislike so much it makes you sick.

Maybe this is why my favorite cookie became oatmeal chocolate chip. My mom made them often from the recipe on the Quaker box. She used a lot more cinnamon and would keep a supply in the freezer.
