Miss DHP,
My mother raised me in under the impression that one should never show up empty-handed, though how that translated to the post for me, I could not tell you. I do suppose it is my way of making amends for the magazine predicament.
The cookies came out much better this time, what do you think of them? I wouldn't mind a little icing atop them either. A little confectioners sugar, milk and a touch of vanilla would do the trick in a little drizzle. The scones however, are absolutely delightful. I am fond of a blueberry lemon myself and so I have included some to continue our exchange, but I don't sell these at the shop. They are a more personal recipe. I enjoy the best with my morning tea.
Your honesty is quite refreshing, though I do suppose that begs the following question, am I to guess who you might be or will you save me the quest to figure it out? I must admit I forgot how much fun correspondence could be, so I do thank you for reminding me.
Sincerely,
Q. Honeyduke
