oooh scones

SouthernYooper

Nope. Not scones. lol totally different. Scones are tougher. These things are pillow soft.

JoeyK

I am so confused biscuits are sweet and mum hides them from the kids, not for gravy he he I must try one of these thingys you make. Is it a dumpling?

SouthernYooper

Kind of like a dumpling...but here dumplings are biscuit batter that is poured into a pot of stew and cooked that way. These are cooked in an oven.

Lol this is the best info on biscuits.

JoeyK

oh I thought you were totally just messing with me

SouthernYooper

Nope, lol. Apparently biscuit is another thing that means one thing everywhere else in the world....except in the US, where it means something totally different.
