This “silly woman” will sell them to millions of other “silly women”. Her name carries a lot of weight with women.

It is odd though that a country as beaten up as we’ve been for a year with closings, unemployment, Chinese flu and now a Marxist gov will spend $25 + $15 for shipping to buy 12 biscuits.

$50 with shipping and handling. And don't forget tax. $4 a biscuit. And yes, there will be idiots who will pay that.

I make my own buttermilk drop biscuits.

They are awesome.

Finding decent buttermilk is a PITA, but it’s worth it.

Baking isn’t hard. Just gotta do it. It’s how you learn. People these days are scared of everything. They’d rather pay than take a bit of risk...

Thank goodness I live in Alabama where Jack’s (not Jack in the box) makes biscuits just like my Mammaw used to make them...and way cheaper than that!

The best Southern biscuits are made with soft winter wheat flour. White Lily is the brand most of us buy.

The type of flour is very, very important to the end result.

You can order it from Amazon or Wal-Mart and shipping is free if you order over $35 total cart value at Wal-Mart or free if you are an Amazon Prime member.

How much would 12 plain biscuits from Bojangles or Chick-fil-A be? Probably about half as much or less.

These biscuits aren't likely meant for you, and that's ok. They're meant for the thousands of women who spend six or eight bucks at the checkout aisle every month buying her magazine to see her effortlessly lounging in yet another pastel room clad in shiplap.

There's a whole economy built around people who could do stuff but don't. People who have beautiful gourmet kitchens but only know how to make reservations and use the microwave. People who use brunch as a verb, people who aren't rich but want to buy a moment of a rich person's lifestyle by eating an overpriced biscuit that a celebrity says is perfect.

Would the world be better off if more people knew that it costs mere pennies to make great flakey buttery biscuits and the technique isn't difficult to learn at all? Absolutely. Is that going to happen any time soon? Well, we had a year of people staying at home with restaurants closing by the day, if that mass conversion were to happen, it would have happened by now.

We have a homemade biscuit place about a mile from me. $1.50 for a buttermilk biscuit. $4.25 for a biscuit with fried chicken and gravy. Think I’ll stick with them.

Frozen biscuits are God’s gift to Poppy’s everywhere. They are light years better than any tube biscuit. Pop them in the convection oven for 15 minutes and viola, one (very acceptable) biscuit. Many microwaves double as convection ovens. Would also work well in an air fryer, which is just sooped up convection oven.

Convection cooking is very efficient and precise. My favorite convection cooker is my pellet grill. A wood fired convection oven.

Yesterday’s bacon biscuits sure looked good. Haven’t tried them yet but I have a jar a bacon grease ready to go.

Oh, and the price is really $40. That’s a lot of biscuits if I bake them myself.

I looked at Magnolia current items for sale. They’ve got Zucchini bread! A man I used to work with would bring his wife’s zucchini bread to work. I LOVED this bread! He wouldn’t give me the recipe, so I’ll try this one. :)

$2.00 a biscuit plus shipping? Mine cost about .20 each and I’m sure they’re better.

I had these in Waco at the Magnolia farms.They are DENSE and seem more like hard tack than a biscuit. Taste was ok.

My wife used to watch the Gaines' show Fixer Upper on HGTV. After years of it, she became totally burned out on them. Also, almost all the other shows on HGTV are variations on the Fixer Upper theme of a couple renovating a dilapidated house for someone. Now I think she has a backlash against them and is tired of their omnipresence. I subscribed her to the new Discovery + streaming service and she has not watched anything with Chip and Joanna.
