Biscuits

Two new biscuit ideas:

1. Instead of shortening or butter, I'm using true-blue lard. You can buy it at the Kroger. It smells kind of like bacon, only worse, cold, bacon, but you don't taste it once the biscuits are made, AND it gives them the best texture yet.

2. Fold some sliced olives into the dough before cutting it for some savories that are awfully good with a slice of ham in between.
