I am a great cook, however I can not do pastry. I make this amazing pot pie, but I put it in a store bought crust. Same with everything else. My pastry dough is awful.
Biscuits... HA! Sure, they turn out great one time, and then the next 4 my husband says they are hockey pucks! LOL
I use refrigerated biscuits too. Aside from that though I do most of my cooking by hand. I make amazing casseroles and chili and stuff.
Some of us might just have to admit that pastry is just not our thing. I can make pizza crust though. I wish I could help you, but I am in the same boat and after almost 18 years of marriage I just buy refrigerated dough and call it a day.
