Cats are often pretty good people, but they make me sneeze.

I cut my biscuits into squares using a knife, that way I don't have to reroll the dough and cut them again.  I round the corners with my fingers as I put them on the baking sheet to make them "biscuit shaped" because square biscuits is weird. 

If I was making huge batches, I might try cutting them into hexagons in a honeycomb pattern.  No rerolling and a lot easier to make them round.

You can make them square to fit your square biscuits.  ;)

And my biscuits are round (well, mostly round)  I just don't cut them that way because you either have a lot of waste or you have to reroll a good part of the dough and make it tough.  You shape them as you put them on the cookie sheet.  I could make them truly round but I don't want to handle the dough that much.

Purchased my first bag of pillsbury grands this morning.
Will report back.

Strawberries looked pretty good so we bought a quart. Sliced them, sprinkled lightly with powdered sugar, set aside.
Heated up some Pilsbury Grands.
While they were still hot, we split each biscuit into a bowl, and topped it with a scoop of french vanilla ice cream, a scoop of now-syrupy strawberries, and a stupid amount of whipped cream.

I and the wimmen folk agreed that it was a wonderful faux strawberry "shortcake".

We think biscuits in the mix work better than poundcake. They deliver a better a taste contrast (less sweet) and complimentary texture (dry biscuits contrasted well with the syrupy creaminess).

Can you get thin sliced dry cured country ham where you live, Bogie?  Country ham as opposed to regular city style ham.  That's great on those biscuits.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I got burned out on country ham back when I was a kid, and haven't developed an adult liking for the stuff... I hate okra too. And beans. Both of which were easy to grow...
