That's a shame, because biscuits and pie dough are very easy to make. It
seems that you have to have the knack for it. The trick is not to work
the dough too much. You can whip up a batch of fresh biscuits in a
couple of minutes and they cook in about 15 minutes. They are chep to
make and well worth the effort.
