The Lucques cookbook has a recipe for a date-and-butter tart. I think
Christine has that book; if she is reading this maybe she'll type up the
recipe. (I would, but I'm at work right now and I don't have the book with
me.) Or maybe Lin will do it, but she's probably crashed out after seeing
the dentist today.
