I thought it was just me! Now that I know it's a universal phenomenon, I will no longer question the craving and just loll about in buttered biscuit bliss.

And I should probably try one of each fruit jewel atop these buttery clouds......sigh.

These biscuits look incredible! I don't really have a worthy biscuit recipe. PLEASE share your yours again, if you can 🙏🏻

The quote is lovely and a nice reminder of the joy of helping others and the biscuits…. Not only could I smell them but I could taste and feel the texture, both outside and in!

These biscuits look as good as the ones you shared last year! Bet they're just as tasty too! Can I have 2; one with cherry and the other topped with a little apricot jam? But I can butter them first, right? Thanks, Clara!

Yum! Apricot please. I totally get this. Two days ago my husband, who is not much of a breakfast eater, woke up with blueberry pancakes on his mind. Same principle - that has become our go-to comfort. The quote is so "on-time" for me also. I am surrounded by cousins where I live who do volunteering on a regular basis. We are on the go too much to make a regular commitment, but since I weave, I do my "volunteering" by weaving comfort shawls and giving them away to people who need them. I am guided on my weaving journeys by my Maine Wabanaki prayer basket (permission to use given by the basket maker herself) which helps me see my purpose. (Sorry - it's a long way from biscuits, but hit home to me with the quote).

Did someone say "shared the recipe?" Could you do that again, please? They look SO good!

Although I rarely eat apricots, I think apricots jam is quite tasty.

Butter on warm biscuits....heavenly. Thanks Clara, for getting up early to have them ready for us this morning.

These biscuits became a favorite from the first time you shared the recipe, back in 2020, back at the beginning of Covid. Every time I make them I think of you and the gift of a tried and true recipe. We have them often with homemade soup. True comfort. Thank you!

You and I must be on the same wavelength, Clara. Last night I opened the fridge looking for just a little something. All that appealed was the couple of spoonfuls of Bon Maman cherry preserves left in the jar. But I didn't have any bread or BISCUITS to put them on, so I just picked out the cherries with a spoon and ate them standing there in the kitchen. What a treat, but gee I would've loved the butter and crunch to go with it. And a cup of Irish breakfast tea.
