Yeah, it's /way/ rich. Think of it this way, it's part of what farmers ate at o-dawn-thirty to keep them going until lunchtime. There's really not much to it, IIRC, but I never learned to make brown or red eye gravy (or any other). Brown gravy was more common around our (grandparents') houses. I /had/ to learn to make biscuits from scratch before I moved out of my parents house, though. I'd've died without fresh scratch biscuits. As sort of an inside joke, my dad's family gave me her rolling pin (an old bottle) and biscuit cutters (she never used) from her estate. > Having since turned vegetarian, I don't suppose that I'll ever have > the guilty pleasure again, but the memories will always be with me.
