Title: Sopapillas (Fried Biscuits)

My mom used to make these when I was a kid but we'd put cinnamon sugar on them. It's been decades since she
made them by hand. Good memories.

We made them in scouts with cinnamon sugar too.

It's important to have good memories like that.

It is. My mom taught me how to cook, bake, read recipes, and how to take
care of myself at an early age and that's helped me a lot over the years.

I'm glad I can cook with things beside a microwave!

I've been told that being able to cook and being willing to wash dishes
are surprisingly valuable assets when living in community. Even living
alone, being able to cook greatly increases quality of life. True, not everyone has the privilege of the use of a kitchen. Home cooking gives
the satisfaction of having a meal made with love and as you like it. A
benefit often on my mind is the ability to omit certain things from the ingredients. Often, affordable products contain unnecessary stuff, for
example a local store-brand flavored sparkling water has a preservative
(Sodium Benzoate) but it's just water! I was sent on an errand to find cranberry sauce without corn syrup, for Thanksgiving. No grocery store
in my area carried that. They do sell raw cranberries, and it's fairly
easy to make home-made cranberry sauce. It's not health food, but it's
an example.

It's imparative for me to make my own food to improve my poor health. Too much food these days has seed oils, chemicals, dyes, HFCS, and other bad things in it. I wouldn't wish my current health on anyone. If I knew then what I know now, I'd be in a lot better shape.
