News Flash! - Biscuits don't naturally come in a can! Real biscuits are fresh, fluffy and flaky -- perhaps topped with butter, jam or honey. They're the kind of experience that makes you close your eyes and swoon as you take the first bite.

 

IN THIS ISSUE, we're baking biscuits and thoroughly enjoying the difference that baking from scratch makes in their flavor (and cost). They are super easy to make once a few basics are understood. We'll start with a traditional baking powder biscuit, then apply those skills to two variations, a pumpkin biscuit, and a pimento cheese biscuit. Yum!

We'd like to take this time to THANK YOU for making our Bring a Bag, Feed a Family campaign such a huge success! Since beginning the effort in late 2009, you have helped us raise over $1702.05 for the Greensboro Urban Ministry's Food Bank!

Every time a customer makes a purchase and brings their own shopping bag, a dime is put in the "Feed a Family" cookie jar. The contents of the jar are then donated to the Greensboro Urban Ministry Food Bank. This allows us to help the environment by using fewer disposable bags, and also help Greensboro's families in need!
