My Granny's Biscuit Recipe

1. Put a pile of self-rising flour into a wooden bowl.

2. Make a little hole in the top of the pile, as if you were planning to fill it with shortening and buttermilk.

3. Put half a handful of shortening and enough buttermilk into the hole in the top of the pile of flour so that when you mix it with your hands, it will be a bread dough consistency.

4. Mix the shortening and buttermilk into the flour with your hands, making sure that the shortening is sort of evenly distributed.

5. Dust your hands with flour, because now you don't want the dough to stick to them. Quickly make a sort of log of dough in the bowl, then feed it through your hand, squirting out biscuit-sized wads of dough.

6. Put the wads onto a heavily greased pan.

7. Turn the oven to 450 and pop the pan into it. Don't wait for preheating, because the short burst of extra pre-heat hotness will give you a head start on browning.

8. Cook the BACON and eggs. Your biscuits will be done at about the same time as the BACON and eggs are done.

Bread machine recipies. I tried the Honey wheat 'n oat bread and I love it, I make it every 2 weeks or so. There are recipies for non-machine bread too.

So back upon topic: The new Lounge king will be back eventually, so Pev, I'll buy three thousand nuclear heads in red and in purple striped pink. I expect them to be all bright and shiny.

Z: Long live the memory of Vian's masterpieces!

Yes Ma'am, I'll shot them right over - well not shoot! erm ship that's the one - they are kind of one shot so no shooting just shipping

Please pay the two headed, three armed Laddie with the tail at the door.
No, really the nukes are perfect and definately not leaking any radiation.

ah but that's OK - isn't it - it's safe (ish!)

We are the pandorg. Resistance is futile. you will be acutelated.

Verencat · 07-06-2009, 09:35 PM

Wondering how prudent it is to leave the display case so close to the pandorg. That thing can be somewhat unpredictable, and I don't really feel him as a gentle big bear. Nor as something who would like to keep the world safe.

Well I think it will be ok as long as he doesn't walk into the case or drop the bit of the world............

Verencat · 07-07-2009, 10:08 AM

But look at him now, walking all askew...I woudn't leave him there. Think Pshrynk could do something about this? Call him back, or give him a mission? Marc is not in here, so the borg should really go, there is no point in keeping him here... I'll give it a try: I'll bring him to the hall and Pev, you shut the door on his back.

Come here Panda! (Why am i doing this!)
Come on, come to mommy! (Pev, want to switch places?)
Yeah, you a cwute wiwle Panda! (Why do I have a feeling of déjà-vu?)
Yes you awe! Yes you awe! (OOOooohh, it's working, he's moving!)
Come hewe, I've got food fow you! (And he's moving fast, too)
Goodies for the cwute Panda! And oil for his awtificial arm! (OMG, Pev, hurry, close the door!!!)

I said close the door!!!! Pev! Pev? Where are you??? Anybody here?? Help! Help!!!! AAAARRgghghhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Not again!!!!!!!!!!!!

Peverel · 07-07-2009, 10:12 AM
