I admit it.... I am in love with lard

Yes it is true.  I found lard and I am in love.  I am sure you are wondering how I came to fall in love with something that sounds soo disgusting.  Well, it all started when I found  http://thepioneerwoman.com/  She is my hero.   I love her recipes, I love her stories and now I love lard. 

What I think you need to do (yes I said need).  Is follow this link  http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2010/05/homemade-flour-tortillas/  and make these tortillas.  I am telling you it will change your life or atleast the way you think about tortillas.  I have made the recipe several times using good old Crisco but I decided to live on the wild side and buy some good old lard.  I am soo glad I did.  I am never buying tortillas again!  Seriously they are that good.  I can not stop thinking of all the delicious food I can create using these tortillas. 

I am sure tonight my dreams will be full of cheeses, sauces and hearty fillings to go into these wonderous, tasty and I am sure low cal tortillas.  Please try these, your family will thank you.
