Coconut Flour Cheese Biscuits

This originally was intended to be a recipe blog, but in the end, Sister Madly got in the way. She likes to cook, certainly, but only seems to feel like it when she’s down the street at the pub, and never after. Food often spoils in her fridge once the will to cook had died upon returning from the market.

When the decision was made to expand it into a recipe/crafty blog, Sister Madly pointed out that she hadn’t cleaned in a while, that she most likely would not be doing so in the near future, and would you please do something about that spider crawling up the wall.

(There had also been a disagreement on the definition of ‘crafty’ as she took to a more literal sense of the word.)

It was then suggested that the blog should be about nothing in particular- “carte blanche, Sister Madly, carte blanche”– and it was to this that Sister Madly finally agreed in those last cheerful moments before launching down the Springwater Trail, resulting in a long and horrible bike ride of bees, hail, opposing winds, miserable cold, two flat tires and an extremely sore bum.

Sister Madly, you see, is conceited, lazy and naughty.

But she makes an excellent Cheese Biscuit. (Coconut Flour)
