North Carolina biscuits

Well this is day four of being iced in and thank the lord it's starting to thaw. I think i have cooked everything in the house. When i was little, Grandma Cora could whip up a batch of drop biscuits quicker than a jackrabbit crossing the hard road. Well i watched her many times and could never quite get the hang of it. Oh she did have a rolling pin, but she preferred drop biscuits. I would always ask, how you know how much lard to cut in, well it's all in how it feels. Well let me tell ya, i bet i have made a zillion batches of biscuits. Fourty five years later and i'm finally getting the feel for it. I'm glad i never did give up , cause let me tell ya, I make a mean biscuit. Here's a picture and in my experimenting i have found that if you add a little MmmMarmalade in the mix, makes it better yet. Remember our youth and Remember..What " Can " you do..
