Apparently I am breathing better. My oxi-meter is showing mid-90s without
having the concentrator turned on and the cannulae up my snoot. That's
a good thing. Initial set-up setting on the concentrator was 6 L/M. If
I can maintain the mid-90s without help the O2 bottles and the concentrator
can go back to the home-hralth store for womeone who really needs them.

SD> Yield: 8 servings
6 c All-purpose flour *
4 c Whole wheat flour *
1/3 c Baking powder
1/4 c Sugar
2 ts Salt
2 c Lard or Crisco shortening
* It is permissible to play with proportions of white to
whole-wheat up to just 10% white flour. Any less than 10%
white flour does not seem to do well for some reason.

In an extra-large bowl stir together flours, baking
powder, sugar, and salt. Cut in shortening till mixture
resembles coarse crumbs. Store in an airtight container.
To use, bring mix to room temperature if frozen. Spoon mix
lightly into a measuring cup; level off with a spatula.
Continue as directed in variations.
Makes about 12 cups.
For a four biscuit batch of Basic Biscuits:
Stir together 1 cup Biscuit Mix and 1/4 cup milk just till
dough clings together. On a floured surface, knead dough
gently 10 to 12 strokes. * Roll to 1/2" thickness. Cut
with a 2 1/2" biscuit cutter. Place on an ungreased baking
sheet. Bake in a 450+|F/230+|C oven 8 to 10 minutes or till
biscuits are golden.
Makes 4 biscuits.
* Do not over-knead or you will get tough biscuits - AKA
"sinkers". My Dad was a master at making biscuits and it
really torqued my Mom's jaws that she couldn't do as
well. Bv)=
