be impressed. be very impressed.

i am not very big on breakfast. many times i can take it or leave it, but there is one thing that my mom makes that i absolutely love.

biscuits. not those grand, pillsbury, store-bought ones. no siree. i like the biscuits where you roll out the dough, use a biscuit cutter, and brush some melted butter on the finished product. yum! so whenever my mom makes them, i eat a whole lot of them.

well, like i knew it would, my mom felt like i should start making them myself if i wanted them (i'm so hurt). so yesterday when kelli and i went to the store, i got the pioneer baking mix to make my own biscuits. this morning, i got up, made coffee, and began rolling out the dough.

ok, at this point, i have to say that making the biscuits is super easy. i mixed two things together. that's it. ok, back to the story.

anyway, there were some hilarious moments, like realizing that i needed a ton more flour than i had (can anyone say sticky fingers?). and of course, roddick was by my side at all times in case something edible fell from the counter. then when i took the biscuits from the oven, they looked more like cookies than biscuits. yes, i know...i rolled the dough out too thin. oh well, now i know for next time.

the good thing is that they tasted as good as i remember. yay!!!! now i can add biscuits to my growing list of things i can make.
