Tornadoes -Twisters- Texas

As many of you have heard, Texas experience the first tornadoes of the season on yesterday.  As a matter of fact the news reported about 6 -12 storms hit the Dallas-Fort Worth area.  The storms left a lot of destruction behind, but we are so grateful that lives were spared.  It's a frightening thing to see the sky go from clear one moment to dark in a matter of minutes.  But Texans know when this happen, we stop what we are doing and listen to the weather.  When you hear people in Texas say, "if you don't like the weather here, stick around cause it will change" is a true statement.  So when you are here visiting and something like this happen, don't wait to see how close it will get, run for cover.

Please see my friend's blog site The Sage Book Whisperer for more Texas Twister details.

I want to add some recipes I found that had a"twist" to it in reference to yesterdays events.
