Angel Biscuits

1 cake compressed or 1 pkg. active dry yeast
2 t. lukewarm water
5 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. soda 1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 cup shortening
2 cups buttermilk

Dissolve yeast in water. Sift together flour, soda, baking powder, and salt; cut in shortening as for pastry. Add buttermilk and yeast mixture. Knead dough until smooth. Refrigerate up to three days or until ready to use. Do not use the same day you mix. They are better if they stand overnight in the refrigerator. Roll out biscuits on a floured board to 1/4 to 1/2" thickness. Bake in a 425 degree oven about 20 min. Or until golden. It is not necessary to let biscuits rise after cutting before baking. However they are more tender if allowed to reach room temperature before baking. They'll melt in your mouth!!!

    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse
    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse of a dessert. Quick and easy, with no ice cream maker needed, this dessert may be served as a chilled mousse or frozen completely as a "gelato."

    Celebrate warm weather with nature's sweet berries. Simply served with a light dusting of powdered sugar, this dessert is not a sugar overload, because it relies on the natural sweetness of in-season berries.

    Here is smoky and slightly spicy twist on fried catfish. Instead of coating the catfish in a thick beer batter, I marinate the raw pieces in beer before seasoning them and lightly dredging them in flour
