Breads I Have Loved And Lost

The Meetinghouse Biscuits Are Coming Back! I told my husband this twice in one day and he accused me of being a bit overwhought. I can't help it. Ever since the lovely and warm Meetinghouse went out of business, I have mourned their California comfort food, but I have mourned nothing more than their biscuits. So you can imagine my excitment when I read a little newspaper clipping posted in the window of the Elite Cafe on Fillmore Street, which is closed temporarily while new owners get it off the ground. Apparently, Joanna Karlinsky, the new chef and co-owner, is a Meetinghouse veteran and she is bringing the blessed biscuits back. Oh joy. I will fall asleep tonight dreaming of them.
