I ...I LOL when I read how your g-ma made biscuits! I do it the *exact* same way. Way back when I was married, we didn't have money for squat (and for a good many years after as well) so only the absolute necessary was bought. A biscuit cutter wasn't one of those things...so I used my glasses. Why not? :o) And my little left-over dough pieces are formed into what I've always called "duds"...but I like "nubbins" better I think. Sounds nicer I do believe.Traceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09739922904822662425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16593640.post-1155212695365698252006-08-10T08:24:00.000-04:002006-08-10T08:24:00.000-04:00So are you going to stuff a pillow with that "nubb...So are you going to stuff a pillow with that "nubbins?"The Calico Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06319271181930512880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16593640.post-1155211544940686272006-08-10T08:05:00.000-04:002006-08-10T08:05:00.000-04:00Someone once told me that their Grandma tucked her...Someone once told me that their Grandma tucked her nubbins under several biscuits and they then could pull out a little nubbin plug and eat it first.<BR/><BR/>Somehow I didn't learn how to make "mommy biscuits" until I was over 30, and I still like them best.<BR/><BR/>Great story.
