Greg...What you call scones is what we call biscuits.
Canned biscuits........Jerry Clower renamed them for every man in America. He called the "WHOMP biscuits." That's the sound the tube makes when you whomp it against the counter edge and it opens.
Biscuits and Gravy with fine old Southern Style Sausage gravy is, for most of us, a fine delicacy that any red-blooded good ol' boy knows is a food fit for the gods......and all of us too. Gravy recipes are family secrets and passed on betweeen generations. Biscuits make all the difference though. You take a someone like Karen who makes really fantastic biscuits and you'll find their husband is the envy of many men far less fortunate. And that is where Whomp Biscuits come in.
Canned biscuits just ain't the real thing. Oh, they'll do if you have to but even the finest sausage gravy can't make it better. Jeryy Clower said the most disappointing sound in the world is when you head towards the kitchen and that great smell of sausage gravy and you hear, WWHOMP. Just ruins the rest of the day..........All your happiness and great expectation are dashed as the sound of WHOMP hits your ears.
