Donuts!

Today for breakfast I made the girls donuts. Basically, it's biscuit dough fried in a skillet with powdered sugar sprinkled all over. It tastes more like a funnel cake to me than a donut. Anyway, my mom used to do that sometimes when I was a kid, and I wanted them to have that memory too. My mom used to make icing and spread it all over, but I thought powdered sugar would be easier, and I don't know how to make icing (I'm sure I could look it up, but why bother?). It was a hit!

Now on to the rest of our day!

Song in the head, "Philosophy," by Ben Folds Five. Not one their best, but that's the one stuck in my head at the moment. I heard it last night on my iPod while I was working on the table. (Just a couple more coats of polyurethane, and I'm DONE!!!)

I've been informed by two sources since writing this post that the way to make the icing is to mix milk with the powdered sugar to the desired consistency. I just wanted to save someone else the trouble of telling me. :o)
