Roasted Vegetables
The flavor of dried herbs is intense -- you should cut the amount by 2/3 if you substitute dried for fresh herbs in any recipe. I used fresh and this was wonderful as written! I wouldn't change a thing!

Southern Biscuits with Mayonnaise
If your biscuits by this recipe turned out 'rock hard' it was due to one of three things: 1) you worked the dough too long or 2) your flour was old and the leavening was no longer fresh or 3) you didn't use SELF-RISING, SOFT ?WHEAT flour, which is not as commonly available elsewhere as it is in the South. Good brands are White Lily or Hudson Cream -- NOT a hard wheat flour like Pillsbury, Gold Medal and DEFINITELY not Martha White (despite their claim to make the best biscuits) I have been making biscuits by this recipe since I was in elementary school and it works every time if you do it right!

Lemon Zucchini Bread
My grandchildren LOVED this -- even AFTER their Poppie told them that there was zucchini in it! It is very light and flavorful. I made it with half Splenda and half sugar because of dietary restrictions but it is still great! The second time I used lime juice and zest instead of lemon and it was absolutely amazing! Thanks for the great recipe!
