It's been a rather productive rainy Memorial weekend.  The lentil soup is on the stove simmering and I've made some "Angel Biscuits" to go with it. Angel Biscuits 1package dry yeast 1/4 cup warm water 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar 2 3/4 cups floor 1/2 cup shortening 1 cup buttermilk Dissolve yeast in the warm water, set aside. Mix dry ingredients. Cut in shortening. Stir in buttermilk and yeast mixture. Blend thoroughly. The dough is ready to refrigerate or roll into biscuits. Turn dough onto floured surface and knead lightly for regular biscuits. Roll out and cut with biscuit cutter. Place on greased pan. Let dough rise slightly before baking at 375 degrees. Bake 12 minutes or until browned. If dough is cold let stand longer to rise. Dough will keep up to 5 days in a covered bowl in the refrigerator. I finished the Peasy sweater... I'm not a bit happy that it is too small! All that work and no one
