Supper

Hello!

I haven't blogged in a while but I have been baking. Recently I moved to college and I have been making my own supper. Yesterday I got the hankering for fry bread. Fry bread is a Native American sort of thing. It is a simple a the name. You make some dough and then you stick in some hot oil and fry it up. It is delicious. I have eaten this bread for my entire life. My mom grew up on an Indian Reservation. No I am not part Native American, I am white as white can be. My mother's parents moved to the res for work and such and so my mommy went with them. Hey at least fry bread came out of the move!
There are a few ways to eat this wonderful bread.  You can eat it plain, which is what I did. You can put taco stuff on it and make Indian tacos, and those are really good. You can make it to a hamburger. You can cover it in cinnamon and sugar. You can basically do anything with it. I was super lazy and I didn't want to buy stuff to put on top so I just ate it plain. It was awesome!! The recipe is super easy, even a twitchy monkey could make it.
