Hi Dave,
DD> Good to hear you made it home OK, if a bit damp. I guess Ashville got
DD> hammered hard.
RH> Asheville and everything west of it, also somewhat east of it. It`ll be
RH> a long time before search and rescue teams make it thru all the hills
RH> and hollers of that area. Have a friend whose an EMT out there, working
RH> 24/7 with just a few hours off between shifts.
DD> I understand that an entire town was wiped from existence. As the old
DD> TV advert once said, "It`s not nice to fool with Mother Nature.
You`re probably thinking of Chimney Rock, the most well known of the
touristy towns in that area. Sadly, a number of smaller towns, homes,
roads, etc have been wiped out; the known death toll is about 45, with
more to be added. I-26 and !-40 (east of Asheville) have reopened for
evacuees and help coming in but a lot of the smaller roads are still
impassible, as is I-40, especially near the Tennesee line. We made it
out with a few hours to spare. Overhead highway signs were warning that
any vehicles left on the shoulders after 4pm would be towed; these
warning continued some distance east of Asheville but had stopped before
Greensboro, where we stopped for the night.

DD> Readig the recipe below - I may have mis-spoken about not having had a
DD> scone. If, in fact, these are scones and not panquakes, as the recipe
DD> author suggests.
DD> Title: St. Swithin`s Drop Scones
DD> Categories: Five, Breads
DD> Yield: 4 Servings
DD> 4 1/2 oz Self-raising flour
DD> 2 ts Caster sugar
DD> 1 lg Egg; beaten
DD> 2 tb Melted unsalted butter
DD> 150 ml Semi-skimmed milk
DD> 8<----- DIRECTIONS CHOPPED ----->8
RH> Actually, they do look more like pancakes. Scones are usually about the
RH> thickness of a biscuit, traditionally wedge shaped. The ones we make
RH> taste like an oatmeal cookie, but much denser.
DD> That`s sorta what I thought. My house-mate really likes oatmeal-raisin
DD> cookies. Chewy or crunchy - he`s not picky. I`m more a chocolate chip
DD> guy. Or Girl Sprout Thin Mints. Bv)=
DD> If the Girls are out of season (or sold out - they`re very popular),
DD> Keebler`s elves make a very nice substitute.

DD> Title: Homemade Thin Mint Cookies
DD> Categories: Cookies, Snacks, Desserts, Chocolate
DD> Yield: 36 Servings
DD> 1 c Butter; room temp
DD> 1 c Powdered sugar
DD> 1 ts Vanilla extract
DD> 1 c Unsweetened cocoa powder
DD> 3/4 ts Salt
DD> 1 1/2 c Cake flour
DD> MMMMM--------------------------COATING-------------------------------
DD> 1 lb Good quality semi-sweet
DD> - chocolate; chopped
DD> 1 ts Peppermint extract; to
DD> - taste
I`d use half vanilla, half peppermint extract in the cookie part to ramp
up the mint taste. (G)
