MY MUM'S PUMPKIN & DATE SCONES

I have clear memories of being about four year's old standing on a little stool next to my mum while she made batches of these golden scones. I always loved being in the kitchen with her and she was endlessly patient, letting me help mix, stir, roll and shape all manner of things (in this case turning a blind eye when I smuggled little nuggets raw dough and dates into my mouth.) We would chat away as we went and she would explain to me what she was doing. I remember to this day her telling me the secret to making good scones was to use the lightest touch possible when you're mixing the dough together...we had no food processor then so everything was mixed by hand and I loved rubbing the flour and butter together, lifting my hands high as she had taught me to help keep the scones light. Although I whiz these up in a processor now, every so often I make a batch by hand, and am immediately whisked back into that childhood kitchen and can almost feel and see Cooee, my mum, beside me in her wonderful cinch-waisted 60's polka dot dress...it's a wonderful image.
