BP: Quiche, Biscuits and Scones

Quiche. Is. Delicious.

The thought of it grosses me out. Cream, eggs and leftover junk from your fridge and that makes quiche. Jeez. I could just as soon go hungry. But, man was I wrong. It’s wonderful. TERRIBLE for you, but wonderful nonetheless.

On the other hand, scones aren’t all they’re cracked up to be. I’ve had ’em before and they’re always dry and not super flavorful. With a good cup of coffee, they’re great. But without a cup o’ joe, they’re just dry sweet biscuits. The ones I made were better than most that I’ve had at coffee shops and bakeries, but they still didn’t turn me on.

Down here in the south, everyone loves their biscuits and gravy. Being a NewEnglander, myself, I’m not really down for that. My biscuits came out nice and flaky. Not bad for a Yank.
