Biscuits

Biscuits could possibly be the best and most eaten Southern comfort food. 

My mom used to make the best! Biscuts are eaten at every meal. They also make great snacks and desserts.   Have you ever eaten an onion biscuit? What about fatback biscuit? 

I remember Mom would sometimes make the spoon biscuits too. We called them "ugly bicuits". They were not the best at stuffing butter and jelly into, but they were great "gravy soppers". 

She makes her gravy dark and thick. So thick your biscuit would stand on its own. Ummm boy! That was some good stuff!

Now days, She will just bake up the frozen ones from Walmart.

I never mastered the art of making biscuits. Sometimes they turned out, sometimes they didn't. 

Same with gravy.

I often wonder if Bojangles really has a little grandmaw in the kitchen whipping up biscuits like in the commercials. 

Why am I talking about biscuits? Well, I found this crazy looking dough cutter in my father in laws estate.

Now that can make a lot of biscuits at one time dontcha think? A lady visiting once told me it was a ravioli cutter. Well, I mean, they were Italian. Hmmm.

I reasearched this utinsil and found out it was a "Moline Hex 12 cavity dough or pastry cutter". So im sticking with "biscuit cutter". 

I plan to clean it up and get it back to tip top shape then put it in the estate sale. 

Unless someone will step up to make me a slew of biscuits. 

What's your favorite thing to put in biscuit? 

Thats Just Rude

I hope I don't come across as an ol hag. Or "one of those old people". But the older I get, the more things annoy me. Things I find quiet rude. 

In just the past week I can name a few things that made me say under my breath, "thats just rude".

Trying to have a nice dinner out after a long days work.

A parent lets their child scream and run around the table. I swere I think people feed their kids like dogs sometimes. Just throw food at them while they run around and play. No respect, no manner, just rude.

While Walking,

Those drivers that refuse to move over just a little while we are walking in an area without a sidewalk. Rude.

Grocery shopping at Walmart.

A couple walks in holding the cutest little puppy dog.

This was not a service dog. It was bull dog puppy and they placed it in the seat of the grocery cart. 

Thats just gross! People put food in those carts. Being Walmart, people also put clothes in those carts. 

I thought, "what is this petco?" 

There are people allergic to animals and I personally do not want to handle my food thats been on a puppy butt serface! Thats just rude!

Fireworks going off in the neighborhood at 4:00 in the morning? Rude.

While sitting at a stop light, gas pump or just enjoying the outdoors.

I do not want to hear your filthy music bumping on your radio and blurting obscene words and phrases. I mean, some of that stuff is xrated. Thats just rude.

Out and about,

People seem to find it ok to just blurt out curse words. They cuss and they are not even mad! I dont understand how this type of vocabulary makes you look any better or smarter. Men who cuss around women. Ruddest!!

Shopping:

Why does that lady have to stop between me and what Im looking at?

At work

Cigarette smoke blown in the air. Talk that would make a sailor blush, and using the bathroom without closing the door. Hey! Theres a woman in the office!! Rude! 

I'm telling ya, it gets worst every day, everywhere. I think there should be fines for these behaviors, but again, maybe its just me. Maybe im being an old fart! 

What annoys you? What do you find rude? Are you

like me and just grin and bear it or do you point out the obvious?
