I'm pining for all things southern now that we've up and moved to the west* and I'm now dealing with dry winter weather and missing the green of my southern life (but I love Utah just as much, btw). I wrote this post a few months before leaving but never published, so here goes....

Most things don't keep my attention for more than a minute, so when I say I was obsessed with trying to make the perfect biscuits this fall, what I really mean is that I obsessed over it for a week or two.

So, for a week or two I tried four or five different recipes and techniques and this recipe, this technique is the best. Nothing tastes as good as eating two warm southern biscuits drizzled in some fresh muscadine jelly. I admonish you to prove me wrong. (Except homemade ice cream on a humid summer's eve, mexican hot cocoa during a snowstorm, a peanut butter and jam sandwich made by my grammy dipped in whole milk, homemade donuts on Halloween, I'd better quit now or I could go on forever).

This recipe is adapted from Southern Living, and it makes up in less than 20 minutes!

Start with 2.5 cups of self-rising flour.
