Thanks so much, Nancy! I've saved the recipe, and I'd probably cut the
quantities to a fourth! Five cups of flour will make an awful lot of
biscuits, eh?!! I may or may not have the Feb09 issue of BH&G on
hand - it's not a magazine I keep after I've read it. Ahah! I found
the hard copy that I had cut out of BH&G - pages 154 through 158.
Thanks again for the heads-up.
