I think it interesting thast some think to combine with fat with the dry 
ingredcients, then add the liquid in order to get a scone or rock cake type 
cookie.  While others start with fat and liquid, then the dry ingredients to 
get a more cake-like or cookie product.

Drat!  I returned all those scandanavian cookbooks yesterday, two were

ingredient lists.
