Maple-Cornmeal Biscuits with Candied Bacon
Dark gray skies. Heavy, nonstop rainfall since the wee hours of the morning. Bundling up in a sweater, scarf, gloves and a soft hat. Closing up all of the doors and windows, leaving just one open enough to hear the rain travel through the trees and gently hit the ground. Sweet toddlers stomping around in their rain boots. And, a sweet maple-cinnamony smell of a small batch of our lunch treats coming from the oven.
Today is bliss.
Like I said, bliss.
