Granny had other things besides refridgeration to keep things cold.
Plus, Granny had better ingredients. Well, unless Granny isn't all
that old <g> She'd have had *real* lard, *real* milk/buttermilk and
so forth and so on. I've also noticed that most of us "younger"
generation seem to overwork biscuits. Well, except for James, of
course <g> Overworked biscuits are a deadly sin!

"The second is to keep all the ingredients COLD until the biscuits

Granny's, who never had refrigeration. Experimentation has
disproven the theory:(
