Bettie's Books

dedication: To my dear sweeties, and my sweetheartOnce a year, usually in the summer, long term Flister Libbeth sends me a surprise and it is always something refreshing; this time it is a sweet shop with recipes:Opening: SOOR PLOOMSThis is a Scots term that translates as sour plums, but in its original language imitates exactly the contortions of your mouth as soon as you pop one in.The note included in the envelope says 'I enjoyed this book but didn't attempt the recipes as the temperatures involved were a bit scary.'A book about sweeties that has no bite - too contemporary for ol' biddy me.
