A Recipe for
Scones 4
There is no sincerer love than the love of food. |
| George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) |
“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves.

| Denis Diderot (1713-1784) L'Encyclopedie (1751-1772) |
