What a first rate recipe. Two wonderful recipes for the taste buds. I so enjoyed this Pat. Thank you for sharing. The creamy biscuits were tender and crisp, while the jam is tart, sweet and tangy. I really enjoyed the addition of the vanilla bean in this jam, it takes it over the rainbow...Kudos....I will be making this again and again.

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
