Norma is 83 years old and has made biscuits at her local Hardee's for nearly 12 years.

"I've made enough of them to make them in my sleep," said Norma.

Norma arrives long before the sun is up every morning and begins baking biscuits. She bakes around 60 dozen a day.

"They all say they eat other biscuits and they don't like them as well as mine and I say well, I put a little more love in them than other people do," Norma told WYMT.

Her coworkers call her "Momma" due to her caring nature. She laughed about the nickname but said she enjoys being there for people.

The 83-year old doesn’t plan on leaving Hardee's anytime soon, either.

"Well they ask me when I'm going to retire and I said they're going to have to take me out feet first, I guess," she said.
