Recipe Review
Today’s
Recipe and Location: Pineapple
Upside Down Biscuits
Found
in: The Pioneer Woman Blog
I have heard of Pineapple
Upside Down Cake but never Biscuits. I know a lot of you like the cake but are
you daring enough to try the biscuits. This is another allergy of mine, but the
recipe does sound interesting.
The
pineapple is a really nutritious fruit. One entire pineapple is only 452
calories. If you ate the pineapple
you would get 105% of your daily Vitamin C requirements and 76.5% of the needed magnesium. Wow – no wonder
they consider it a super fruit.
The
pineapple is originally from Brazil and Paraguay. Christopher Columbus even took it back to Spain and shared it
with the King and Queen.
Random Reflections - The Glorious
Garden
Hibiscus southern bell or rose mallow (red)
I
am so thrilled with these flowers. This large hibiscus grows best in the south,
but can be grown here, too. The soil needs to be well-drained. You shouldn’t
over water this plant. I have mine on the southeast corner of my house. Being
up against the hot side of the house on a small hill, gives the plant great
drainage and protection against the brutal Illinois winters. This plant should
be in full sun. The butterflies love this plant.
The
hibiscus is the largest perennial. They do have some insect enemies like
Japanese beetles, but I have never had any insect problems on this plant.
Irksome Ideas and Images
Not
getting into school has been very frustrating this year. I am so happy that we
now have air conditioning, like the rest of the district, but the delay has
been hard to take this year. I am anxious to have my classroom completely
ready, because I scheduled a lot the last week and will have little time to
spend there. Oh well, there is nothing to do, but accept it and wait.
