American biscuits are more like British scones. Aussie and British biscuits are American cookies. A Lorna Doon is a buttery shortbread type cookie, and a Scottish Heroine. Heroin is ... oh wait, I've lost the thread..... Debi, World Citizen

Hi Debi
Thanks for clearing that up. So when I'm munching on a choc biscuit
you're snacking on a choc cookie and when I smother a scone in jam
(or is that jelly(g) and cream you're dipping yours in gravy - lol
What was Lorna Doon famous for, do ya know?
Regards
Joz

Well, no -- I am Canadian. I eat my biscuits with jam or jelly too! Biscuits and gravy is more a regional thing (Southern US in origin). Lorna Doone was famous as the heroine of a novel where her whole family were robber-baron-y type thieves, but she was pure in heart and won the love of a good man ... come to find out she was "adopted" (that is, stolen away in infancy) .... I have no idea if the cookie was named after her or not! Debi
