Can a biscuit say hello? My grandma Ruby thought it could. She seemed to bake all day - a fresh batch always coming out of the oven. This biscuit-baking ritual warmed the kitchen of her modest farmhouse and the hearts of welcome guests. From close friends to weary farmhands, Ruby's biscuits were a loving invitation to gather, rest, and say hello.
