Best Biscuits Ever

I’ve always had issues with making biscuits. They never turned out quite like I wanted them. Not fluffy enough. Not light and tall and delicious.

My hubby can make some pretty delicious biscuits but I never could get them right. I think his secret was the cold butter. He’d spend the time it took to cut that cold, hard butter into the dry ingredients and then take the even more time it took to gently mix the liquids in and not over mix.

I tend to excel more at things I can throw together quickly and don’t have to be extremely careful with. When it involves taking a lot of time, moving slowly, and being patient, I don’t do so well :D

Melting Crystallized Honey

Honey is so yummy. Sweet and golden it is a wonderful item to have in your home to use for medicinal purposes – providing it is raw local honey.
We like to keep some around for helping combat allergies, and it tastes really good on freshly baked biscuits! But what do you do when the smooth, golden deliciousness turns to crystallized sugar? It’s not very good on biscuits anymore and it gets harder the longer it sits on the shelf. What to do? I’m going to show you today how the process I use for Melting Crystallized Honey.

Autumn is here and Thanksgiving is just around the corner. And will be followed shortly by Christmas! Time to be planning some yummy treats for the holidays! Pies are always a favorite so today I want to share the best pie crust ever with you. This recipe was my Grandma’s and I’ve never tasted a better crust.
