What a beautiful, rainy, crowded biscuity day it was! May 18, 2013. My first International Biscuit Festival and it did not disappoint.

This was one of my favorites. The Green-eyed Monster Pimiento Cheese Buttermilk Biscuit from Biscuit Mecca, aka Tupelo Honey Cafe.

It was huge, moist, slightly spicy, and fabulously flavorful. The pimiento cheese was in the biscuit dough, while the “monster” from the title was a deep fried pepper.

That, folks, is just the beginning. More later….
