Staff of a local organisation had their annual "scone off"
competition recently. The winning entry was a "savoury scone" with a
bit of chili etc -- not what *I* would call a real scone, but I wasn't
there to disqualify it. :-)

The recipe that appealed to me was so simple it was absurd. The admin
officer who "created" it justified it on the basis "Working mums need
to do things easily and quickly." It didn't win, but I might even try
it out if I ever get a working oven again.

So, what's this secret recipe? As told to me _en passant_ in the
corridors of power, so to speak:

Ingredients:
3 cups self raising flower
1 can Campbells pumpkin soup.

Method:
Mix ingredients. Divide into convenient bits and space out on tray.
Bake until done.

Result:
A harvest of pumpkin scones!

(If Flo was dead she would be turning in her grave! Come to think of
it, if she hears about this she'll probably hand in her chips!)

Cheers, Phred.
