"Turn to me and have mercy on me, as you always do to those who love your name. Direct my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me."

The Quest is Over

Another aunt sent the recipe that she had for Chicken and Dumplings that is in Grandma's handwriting. I can't wait to try these and then of course-practice, practice, practice!

Grandma's Chicken and Dumplings

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 t salt
1 1/2 t baking powder
5 T water
1/2 cup milk
3 T bacon fat
1 egg beatin

Roll out and cut, let dry for 20-25 mins.
Knead it on floured wax paper before rolling out.

Note: Grandma didn't use milk in a lot of her recipes. She substituted water.
She also used the egg shells to measure the water.
