Ah, yes, Yorick, I forgot about that: in England and Australia, "biscuit" = "cookie" or "cracker" here.
What do you call what we call a "biscuit?" Also, did you get to enjoy any cat's head biscuits during your stay in the South? ------------------

 It all makes sense now. A "cat's head" biscuit is a giant-sized biscuit, or "scone" as you would call it, that would probably fit on a saucer. They are so called because they are roughly the size of a tomcat's head. Some people call them "owl's head" biscuits as well. They are very popular in the deep south, where you usually find them in diners in small towns. If the diner is personalized with someone's name, like "Ruby's Diner" or "Joe's Diner", then the chance of them having cat's head biscuits is very great.  ------------------

I have no idea where I picked up the information but I knew scones=biscuits. Caleb's Biscuit King and Throne of Scone joke has to be one of the best laughs I have had all year.
I've never heard of a cat's head biscuit! That must be exclusive to the deep south because where I am from, if you make huge biscuits, you're just being lazy!  ------------------  You know childhood is over when a puddle seems like an obstacle instead of an opportunity.
