Biscuit Success

I blame my general biscuit obsession on the heavenly biscuits we dined on at the Loveless down in Nashville.  That trip was something like four years ago and I’m still trying to find a biscuit that comes close to the perfection that they serve up.  Light and airy, they practically melt in your mouth.  When I saw that both Cook Wise and the Bread Bible had a recipe for Touch of Grace Biscuits, I hoped that at last my prayers had been answered.  I thought that with a name like that, the Universe was trying to tell me that my search had ended.
