      Leander Land me too, but it’s not up to them to make the videos, it’s up to us, the younger people with the video skills and cell phones. We need to preserve life skills and know how. This corona virus and economic collapse will make those depression era survival skills more valuable today than in the past.

    Loved the video. I was the youngest grandchild, so I don't recall everything. I stayed with her for several months during my preschool and kindergarten-partial 1st grade. Don't recall her making biscuits (probably did though), but I watched her make/bake bread, dinner rolls 2x a week, every week without fail. I recall watching her hands as I could barely see over the table being seated. She made Ant Cake, aka (Banana Cake). I saw black things in it and asked what they were, she always replied "ants". I BELIEVED HER! She'd always top it with homemade peanutbutter frosting. 1x week she'd make potatoe salad. My Grandma Alice Pearl canned everything imaginable. If someone in Funk Nebraska had too much of something, they'd drop it off/give to her their overflow as she was a widow caring for 2 grandsons after her oldest daughter died in childbirth. I recall every wrinkle in her face and hands. The woman was a work horse. May she enjoy Heaven for Eternity. If only I could have been old enough to ask her about the old days. I miss her so much. I have grown sons. 44 & 47. Only 1 is married. Not one grandchild to my name. Unamerican!

And when she said "I just eyeball it," well, that's one of my phrases because of them. She brought up so many memories that I'm grateful I found this video. She makes her biscuits the same as my grandmothers' too, except they both used iron skillets. I remember that one of them would also leave the oven door ajar after she finished cooking to help heat the house (she was very frugal!)

      Tammie, I would bet that if given the opportunity, Maria would probably tell you her husband or boyfriend has cooked plenty of times. You should work on not interjecting your sensitive feelings into the comment of others. Just relax and enjoy the lessons that are to be learned on RUclips. By the way, I am a man, and not once did it cross my mind that I need to bring my wife to watch the video to learn how to make biscuits after reading Maria's comments. I watched the video, so maybe I could learn. The true meaning, I believe behind Maria's comment is that we all could learn a lot from our elders, if we would quit be critical and looking for fault because we want everyone to see just how "woke" we are. Experience keeps a wise and precious school.

      @@judynoble951 to be honest Jusy i have been trying to figure out a recipe. A lot if it just by what looks good. First off you need self rising flour, crisco and buttermilk. And then you sift your flour into a nice big bowl. And make a well. After that you need about a fourth of a cup of crisco. Just take it iut with your fingers. Thats the way I was taught. My aunt made biscuits almost every day of her life for over 40 years. And using the crisco gave her softer hands than any lotion. So take the crisco and put inthe flour well and start working the flour and crisco together . After you get that done pour in 14 cup buttermilk. Eyeball it. Now you remember making mud pies? You work the flour and crisco and butter milk together to make a dough. If its dry add more buttermilk, if its too wet pull in mor flour. Dont over work the dough. Set your oven on 400. Ofcourse it depends on your oven how long yhe biscuits cook. Now you can roll out the dough for biscuits or just roll them with your hand. You really want to use a xast iron skillet but can use a baking pan. Take some crisco and grease whichever pan u use. Get it hot in the oven. Put the biscuits in the pan and cook 10 to 12 minutes depending on the oven. And how big you made the biscuits. I use my hands and make small balls and pat them down in the skillet. My aunt would brush the biscuits with bacon grease or butter before cooking. Sure hope this helps. Just keep working at it.

My cousins were always over, we had birthday parties, walked up to the lakefront market together for a candy bar, chased the goose in the backyard for fun, and picked the blackberries in my Grandmother's garden. I remember putting the berries in a pretty basket with a blue and white checked cloth napkin. When the evening rolled around, she'd read us a story from Grimm's 365 Bedtime Stories while Grandpa was still at work. That was the life! We were self-quarantined on purpose because that's where all the love was - at Grandma and Grandpa's house!
