Headless chicken here...

Half-done with Ursula's calendar - the template I've got is quite nice, and will translate easily over to the other two I still have to do. I've got more than half the entries up at the new EMG and 98 of the artists represented... and it's due to go live any second now! Just finished making sausage gravy for biscuits. Got the remainder of the PA queue up for the minions to tackle. Last time I EVER have to do that....

After breakfast, it's in to town to finish orders and make SCHTUFF for Dragon*Con. Lots of schtuff. Big prints, and t-shirts and magnets, mostly. I'm not going to bring stickers (hard to display), I've got a good stock of bookmarks (though do need to print more of those, too...), small prints are less critical, cards - I'm again not going to bother with. I have a *table*, not a big space, and cards aren't one of my showcase products. It's been tough selecting what to bring.

Oo! biscuits are done... *flees*

Sausage gravy on biscuits? You wierded me out there until I remembered Americans call all biscuits cookies. English people only call the chocolate chip ones cookies. (Ok I know you're Alaskan but you know what I mean)

So what are the things you call biscuits, are they something like scones?

Are scones sweet? I can't remember. Biscuits are soft, not terribly sweet, buttery and best served warm. Dense, compared to regular white bread, and fairly neutral in flavor. Delicious with hot sausage gravy. :)

Fruit scones are sweet and cheese scones are savoury, but we usually just have butter with the cheese scones or
if you have fruit scones with cream and jam that is what we call a "cream tea" (with a cup of tea of course)

The only thing I can think of similar that we would have gravy with is yorkshire puddings which are made like pancake batter but thicker and cooked in something like a patty tin but bigger individual holes (four to a pan), they half rise then collapse and you have a dimple in the top to pour the gravy in to go with your roast beef potatoes and veg.
