Funeral FAQs
Everything you need to know about funerals.
What is a funeral?
A funeral is any ceremony that offers an opportunity for family members and friends of the deceased to express love, respect, honor and grief for a loved one. Whether you choose traditional burial, cremation or green burial, a funeral offers the bereaved a place to celebrate life and take the first step towards healing.
What do funeral directors do?
Essentially, a funeral director is trained to anticipate your needs and help you decide on the details of your service. But, in the end, it is you who knows your loved one best, so a director is here to simply help arrange any type of service that will honor and celebrate your loved one. Directors can be caregivers, planners, organizers and advisors all at once. They are trained to answer questions about grief, recognize when a person's having difficulty coping, and recommend sources of professional help. Funeral directors can also link survivors with support groups at the funeral home or in the community.
Why do we need an obituary notice?
An obituary notice serves to celebrate the life of a loved one. They're also nice for friends and family of the deceased, as they detail the many memories and stories of a persons life. Publishing an obituary can also help take some of the burden of having to notify many people about funeral details off your plate. For more information, check out our guide on how to write a beautiful obituary.
What type of service should I have?
You have the utmost control in deciding the service you want. The cemetery counselor and the funeral director are there to help you understand all the options available so that you can plan a service that is truly personalized and tailored to your loved one. You can incorporate memories into the service, whether that be through a favorite type of music, some readings that reflect them or a special type of flower. Above all, you should feel that the service appropriately reflects your loved one and the people he or she touched.
Can I personalize my funeral service?
Absolutely, in fact, we recommend it. After all, a funeral is a celebration of life and each life lived is unique. Funeral directors are happy to discuss any and all options to ensure your funeral is tailored to your wishes, and you'll find that you can personalize services in many unique ways. You can reach out to us at any time to explore your options, or view our service page for more information.
Is cremation a substitute for a funeral?
Cremation is an alternative form of final disposition, but it can and frequently does still follow a funeral service. Our cemetery also offers green options such as scattering ashes around our lush, beautiful grounds. We can assist you with the necessary information about cremation, including the details of several wonderful cremation burial options or ash scattering, if this is an avenue you wish to explore.
Can I have a visitation period and a funeral service if cremation is chosen?
Absolutely! Cremation does not mean you cannot have a visitation period and a funeral service. Cremation is simply one option for final disposition of the body.
What is the purpose of embalming?
Embalming is a process to sanitize and preserve the body. It also makes it possible to lengthen the time between death and final disposition, allowing family members time to arrange the type of service most comforting to them and begin their own healing processes. While this is a personal decision for you to make, the emotional benefits of viewing the deceased can be quite helpful, particularly to those who are having difficulty dealing with the death.
What should I do if the death occurs in the middle of the night or on the weekend?
We are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All you need to do is place a call to us at (541) 265-2751. We can help lead you in the right direction.
What should I do if a death occurs while away from home?
Your funeral director can help you if a death occurs anywhere on the globe. The director will coordinate all arrangements that are needed to get your loved one safely back to his or her community. Please refer to When A Death Occurs for the key steps you can follow in the event this occurs.
Is embalming mandatory by law?
It is not, but there are factors of time and health that may make embalming either appropriate or necessary. Please note that embalming may be required if the deceased is being transported by air to another country where local laws need to be observed. You can always contact us if you have questions on this subject, as we know it can be an unfamiliar subject to many.
Funerals seem so expensive - why is that?
When you're in the middle of planning a funeral, it seems like there are so many costs that go along with it. That's because funerals incorporate many elements, from viewing rooms and chapels to limousines and caskets. But each of these elements help ensure that every detail is perfect, and there are options available for every preference and budget. We can help you decide what options are right for you.
Have the costs of funerals increased significantly?
We know that funerals can seem expensive when you're in the middle of planning, but costs have not increased significantly. In fact, funeral costs have kept pace with the general consumer price index. You can always talk to us to figure out an option that meets your needs.
What recourse do I have for poor service or overcharging?
Most funeral homes provide outstanding services, but sometimes outcomes may not be exactly what you had in mind. In most cases, it makes sense to discuss problems directly with the funeral director first. But if the dispute cannot be resolved by talking with the funeral director, you may wish to contact the Federal Trade Commission by contacting the Consumer Response Center. You should never hesitate to refrain from speaking up if you're unhappy with the final result.

In 1939, Jessie Lee Bond died. His death certificate says he drowned accidentally, but his family has always maintained that he was lynched after an argument with white shop owners — shot and thrown into the river.
No one has ever been charged with his death.
Decades later, his now-91-year-old brother, Charlie Morris, told StoryCorps in Memphis, Tenn., that he was at school when he was called down to the office and told that his brother had been murdered.
Morris says that all he wanted was to get revenge. He went to his grandmother's house. He was crying and carrying a revolver. His grandmother begged him not to go.
"She says, 'Son, don't do this,' " Morris recalls. "She says, 'I've got one grandson dead. I don't want the burden of another grandson being dead.' "
Morris says the hatred he carried for 10 years after his brother's death was a burden.
"I was just sick. I was aching," Morris says. "I'd go to the doctor, [but] the doctor couldn't find anything."
One day, the doctor asked Morris to come back to the office and to bring his wife. The next Thursday, they showed up together.
"When we got in there, he started questioning her," Morris says. "I was having nightmares, but she never told me. I was crying in my sleep. I was calling for my brother."
Morris says he began to realize what was happening. "And the doctor told me ... 'I'm the wrong doctor for you.'
"And when I began to forgive, there was all the answers to my illness. I didn't have to go to the doctor anymore. I didn't have those pains. But it did put a dent in my life for a long time."
Morris' story inspired a Tennessee state representative to introduce a bill that would require the study of unsolved civil rights crimes. The bill has been stalled in the state Senate for nearly four years.

Guest Post: Almond Blancmange
Surprise! I am here but I am not really here…. At the beginning of the year I mentionned that there would be some new and familiar faces coming by to mend the fort while I would focus on deadlines for the cookbook. The support these people have given me is beyond any expectations whether it be a "hey! Whassup?!", a "dude! Calm down and breathe!" or a single image they took or post they wrote moved me in many different ways. I also thought that asking them to guest post would let you discover amazing people if you don't know them already. They won't all be food bloggers, but they do have a couple of things in common: talent and a love of all things sweet. I'll be back next post!
Today, it's my very own hero Jen of Use Real Butter keeping you company. I discovered Jen through the Daring Bakers and our friendship has grown in the most delicious way this past year. She is funny, bubbly, and sincere. She gives it to you as it is, has a very opiniated opinion (her words), a mouth watering blog and brilliant food photography. We have a say in our house "Jen's…that's what for dinner!"
I am positive I will go to my grave with a long list of desserts trailing behind me… I don't mean my gluteus maximus (hey, I'm keeping it clean since this isn't my blog), I mean a list of dessert recipes that I want to make. For every new recipe I master, there are at least three or four that I add to the list. Oh, who am I kidding? I don't master recipes, I just make them, shoot them, post them, and pawn them off on friends and neighbors. Despite this sisyphean endeavor to work my way through The List, imagine my delight and astonishment when I am introduced to a completely new dessert.
I think Tartelette will laugh when she learns that the first time I ever heard of Blancmange was when I was in junior high and listened to the British synthpop band by that very name. It wasn't until 20+ years later *gasp* that I sunk my teeth into the dessert, blancmange, at my aunt's house. Utterly delightful stuff.
If you told me that I could not eat chocolate ever again, I would not be heart-broken. I like to make things with chocolate, but I am okay without eating it. Now, if you said the same thing about cream-based desserts, I might sit down and have a cry because I actually enjoy eating them almost as much as I enjoy making them.
Having tried blancmange once before, I found a recipe for a modern variation on the dessert in one of my cookbooks. This one contains ground almonds – enticing! Based on other recipes I've perused, it looks as if blancmange is typically very smooth – a thickened cream-based dessert that is served unmolded. I ran into one discrepancy in the recipe, which was to use 1.5 cups of blanched almonds and in parentheses, the recipe said 4.5 ounces. That's not right at all. 1.5 cups yielded 7.5 ounces. In hindsight, I think I'd go with 4.5 ounces and I'll make a note of that in the recipe.
Even with a lot more almond than I think the recipe should have had, it was delightful. I would probably grind the almonds down finer than I did for a creamier consistency in the future. The process of folding in the whipped cream lends to the airy texture of the dessert. I made individual servings in ramekins, which unmolded with some stubborness. That may have been due to the high almond content.
The resulting texture was slightly thicker than mousse. If unmolding had not worked, I could have easily served the blancmange in lovely quenelles (although I'm not sure that would fly if I had made the recipe with less almonds). Either way, the important accompaniment is the fruit. Any combination of berries, drupes, you name it, pairs lovingly with the almond and cream. It also looks as stunning as it tastes. A simple and elegant recipe to serve.
Modern Almond Blancmange Recipe:
from Classic Home Desserts by Richard Sax
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup cold water
1 envelope (2 1/2 tsps) unflavored gelatin (powder)
4 1/2 oz. almonds, blanched, sliced or slivered (just under 1 cup)*
2/3 cup sugar
4 tsps kirsch or Amaretto (ummm, I think I could definitely use more of this)
*the recipe says to use 1 1/2 cups which 66% more than 4 1/2 ounces, so if you want a really almondy dessert, go for it, otherwise I think 1 cup is sufficient.
In a small saucepan, combine the 1/3 cup of cream and the cold water. Sprinkle the gelatin over the surface and let stand for about 5 minutes. Stir over low heat until the gelatin dissolves. Set aside. Pulse the almonds and the sugar in a food processor until the almonds are very finely ground. When the gelatin mixture has cooled slightly, stir in the kirsch or Amaretto. Add the ground almond mixture and stir until combined. Whip the remaining 1 1/4 cups cream to soft peaks (do not overbeat). Fold the cream into the almond mixture in thirds. Rinse a 6-8 cup mold or 8 4-ounce ramekins (I did 6 6-ounce ramekins) in cold water. Pour in the mixture and cover with plastic wrap (but don't let the wrap touch the mixture). Refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight. To serve, run a sharp knife around the edge of the mold. Dip the mold quickly in and out of hot water. Invert the mold onto a moistened plate and unmold. [Or, if you're me, cover the ramekin with plastic wrap after loosening the sides and dipping in hot water, then turn it over and smack it on a kitchen towel on the counter several times. When it finally comes out, use another piece of plastic to cover the top, then invert it again, remove the first piece of plastic, then invert it once more onto the serving plate.] Garnish with lots of fresh fruit (berries, peaches, etc.).

How does this work? How do I find the right wall colour to match my wallpaper?
Design wallpaper is often used just for one feature wall. For the other walls, we recommend a coat of paint in a matching colour. Use our lining paper, which you can order with the wallpaper, as a base for the paint.
Choosing the ideal colour shade presents you with endless possibilities: a colour found in the pattern of the design wallpaper is often an excellent choice for painting the other walls of the room. That is why we show you the main colours of each wallpaper in the Shop.
By clicking on the respective colour symbol, you can find the exact colour shade on Encycolorpedia, a kind of Wikipedia for colours and colour codes. If you scroll down this page, you will see a variety of possible paint manufacturers (including wall paints), e.g. Dulux, Valspar, Benjamin Moore and many more. Simply jot down the product code of your favourite brand and visit a paint shop in your area. They will not only mix the right wall paint for you, but can also advise you on the differences in gloss levels or characteristics.
We deliberately refrain from selling wall paints online, because buying locally and on site simply makes more sense, not least for ecological reasons. Colours are liquids and as such quite heavy. Transporting paint by parcel service only causes unnecessary environmental pollution.

How to Find a Private Money Lender
Investing in real estate can be a bit different than applying for a mortgage on a home you wish to live in.
When buying an investment property, you might want to consider seeking out a private money lender to help reach your investment goals.
In this article, we will discuss how to find a private money lender in Texas.
Anyone can become successful in real estate investing. Finding a private money loan is an excellent way to get started.
How to Find a Private Money Lender in Texas
Understand The Process and Educate Yourself
There are many resources out there to help you learn about private lending and the process of real estate investing. Make sure you thoroughly understand the timeframes in which you need to sell in order to make a profit as well as the interest rates you will be paying.
When you are first getting started, the financing terms may seem overwhelming. Don't become intimidated.
Do you know the difference between working with a private lender and borrowing from a hard money institution?
A private lender is someone who is willing to work with you directly, without the need of a financial institution becoming involved.
You will need to pitch your investment to a private money lender and to do so, you need to know what you are talking about. But how do you find someone who is ready to invest in what you have to offer?
Make A List
Think about al of the people who could potentially provide you with a private money loan. Friends, family, business associates, other investors. Basically, anyone with money to spend can become a potential lender.
And if your proposed repayment terms offer enough incentive, getting a private money loan can be exactly what you need to reach your investment goals.
Broaden Your Reach
As a real estate investor, it is a great idea to continually grow your network of potential lenders. There are countless groups both on and offline designed to help match borrowers with potential lenders.
Work on getting to know professionals in the industry. Knowing agents, title professionals, and other investors will keep your finger on the pulse of the market.
Perfect Your Pitch
To find the perfect private money lender for your investment you must have all your ducks in a row, This includes business plans, and thorough research on the properties and investments you with to make.
Your payment terms must be clearly outlined and your lender should know exactly what to expect and when.
Your ultimate goal should be to develop a strong rapport with your private lender so that you can work together on deals together for years to come!
At the end of the day, it is all about being ethical. You want to create a win-win situation for all involved. Getting a private money loan can lead to a great investment for you, but your lender is also looking for a great return.

Free Fight
UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva has refused to get in a war of words with loquacious challenger Chael Sonnen before their UFC 117 bout. Instead, he'll let his fighting do the talking...
You never hear too much from a spider before it bites you. In fact, you won't hear it all until it's on you and doing its particular form of damage. UFC middleweight champion Anderson "The Spider" Silva seems to be taking this line of attack leading up to his seventh title defense against Chael Sonnen this Saturday night, opting to let the challenger throw all the verbal punches in the lead-up to the UFC 117 main event.
"This is his way of promoting the fight, everyone has their way," said Silva. "I don't like to talk like that; I like to go in the Octagon and do my job."
It's been his way from the first time he entered the UFC in 2006 with a blistering 49 second knockout of Chris Leben. Ironically, the last fighter to really throw some smack talk Silva's way was Leben, and the result of that fight speaks for itself. Since then, Silva has been virtually untouched, winning ten more fights to up his pro record to 26-4 while taking over the record books when it comes to the middleweight title.
It's been a Hall of Fame quality run, but there have been more doubters than ever coming to the forefront after Silva won clear but uninspiring victories over Patrick Cote, Thales Leites, and most recently, Demian Maia. These wins were sandwiched around an ultra-impressive first round knockout of former light heavyweight champ Forrest Griffin, but in this sport, it's 'what have you done for me lately,' and lately, all people have been talking about is Silva's fight with Maia, which was marred by plenty of showboating, but not enough fighting. The champion has taken such criticism in stride.
"Criticism is part of it," he said. "Win or lose, there are always critics."
One of the most vocal has been Sonnen, whose unyielding verbal attacks have made Saturday's bout one of the most highly-anticipated of the year. It's actually the perfect stage for Silva to come back with one of his trademark explosive performances, but when you ask if he's looking to make a statement this weekend, his answer is non-committal.
"When I step in the Octagon I am there to do my job," he said. "On August 7th I will be defending my title and doing what I trained to do, which is to win fights."
But what about Sonnen's attacks?
"He talks a lot, and it's actually funny," said Silva, who, while respecting Sonnen's abilities, has no doubt that his camp has prepared him for another victory in Oakland.
"He (Sonnen) is a tough fighter, but I believe in the work that my team and I have been doing."
Training at the Black House gym in Southern California with a gang of stalwarts that includes Lyoto Machida, Mark Munoz, Mario Miranda, and Satoshi Ishii, Silva, 35, is still enjoying life as a fighter, and as far as the rigorous work in the gym goes, that's one of the perks of the job.
"Being around my team, my friends, my family, and the people that are always there supporting me is what motivates me," he said. "I love what I do, I enjoy training, and the atmosphere with my teammates, teaching new guys, this is my life."
And considering that despite the criticism he has received he has barely lost more than a few rounds in his entire UFC stint, Anderson Silva is still as the top of his game and still eager to take on all comers in the middleweight division, beginning with Chael Sonnen.
"I think everyone has a goal to win the title, and at 185 pounds that title is mine, so that is why I am the target," he said. "But I like the challenge, it motivates me."

"reStructuredText is an easy-to-read, what-you-see-is-what-you-get plaintext markup syntax and parser system. It is useful for in-line program documentation (such as Python docstrings), for quickly creating simple web pages, and for standalone documents. reStructuredText is designed for extensibility for specific application domains. "
Note that to activate RST support in Trac, the python docutils package must be installed. If not already available on your operating system, you can download it at the RST Website.
More information on RST
- reStructuredText Website -- http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html
- RST Quick Reference -- http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/rst/quickref.html
Using RST in Trac
To specify that a block of text should be parsed using RST, use the rst processor.
TracLinks in reStructuredText
- Trac provides a custom RST reference-directive 'trac' to allow TracLinks from within RST text.
{{{ #!rst This is a reference to |a ticket| .. |a ticket| trac:: #42 }}}
For a complete example of all uses of the trac-directive, please see WikiRestructuredTextLinks.
- Trac allows an even easier way of creating TracLinks in RST, using the custom :trac: link naming scheme.
{{{ #!rst This is a reference to ticket `#12`:trac: To learn how to use Trac, see `TracGuide`:trac: }}}
Syntax highlighting in reStructuredText
There is a directive for doing TracSyntaxColoring in ReST as well. The directive is called code-block
{{{ #!rst .. code-block:: python class Test: def TestFunction(self): pass }}}
Will result in the below.
class Test: def TestFunction(self): pass
WikiMacros in reStructuredText
For doing WikiMacros in ReST you use the same directive as for syntax highlightning i.e code-block. To work you must use a version of trac that has #801 applied.
WikiMacro? Example
{{{ #!rst .. code-block:: HelloWorld Something I wanted to say }}}
Will result in the below.
HelloWorld(Something I wanted to say)?
Bigger ReST Example
The example below should be mostly self-explanatory:
{{{ #!rst FooBar Header ============= reStructuredText is **nice**. It has its own webpage_. A table: ===== ===== ====== Inputs Output ------------ ------ A B A or B ===== ===== ====== False False False True False True False True True True True True ===== ===== ====== RST TracLinks ------------- See also ticket `#42`:trac:. .. _webpage: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html }}}

Niu Gai Teapot Premium And Treasure Yixing Zisha Pottery Handmade Zisha Clay Teapot Guaranteed 100%Genuine Original Mineral Fired
Price: $131.05
Capacity: 260 ml;(gong fu teatop)
Clay: purple clay
traditional gift packaging...
Worldwide shipping: EMS or FedEx or Air parcel (about 1-2 weeks arrival)
How to use and care your treasure zisha clay tea pot
Please follow the following procedures before first time use ( called "Kai Hu" in Chinese)
1) First please use clear water to wash away the dust in the surface of the teapot and the clay remains inside, be sure NOT use any detergent or disinfectant.
2) Put the teapot into the warm water in a cooking pot , and boil the water by using low or medium fire. Put leaf tea, the kind you will use to make in this teapot (quality not required), inside the cooking pot after boiling for 10 minutes, then turn off the fire to cool the water [you can check whether this teapot been artificially treated (waxed, shoe oil used or fake material used in the clay) if you find oil on the surface of the water or there is strange smell, in this case I suggest you'd better not use this teapot].
3) Use low or medium fire to boil the water again after the cooling down, and turn off the fire after boiling 10 minutes, and cooling down the water again.
4) Use low or medium fire to boil the water for further 25 minutes, then turn off the fire and keep the teapot in the water for one night. Clean the teapot with clear water in the next day, then use cloth to clean the teapot, and dry the teapot in the natural place and ready for use.
The advantages of the procedures above("Kai Hu"):
Remove the clay smell from the teapot, and most important is that the "furnace fire" of the teapot can be removed, the new teapot can be well nutrient through this kind of treatment. And it is also good for the further maintenance of the teapot, and it also can avoid the "abrupt break" of teapot in some cold area (such as north-east China).
How to care zisha clay teapot
The teapot maintenance request your patience, DO NOT use any sand-contained polishing cloth to clean the teapot, otherwise the surface of the teapot will be hurt and scratched. It is suggested to use cotton cloth and nylon brush to clean the teapot, and wash directly with clear water. Be careful do not wash too hard to break the teapot.
Care the teapot with your heart, and use right gesture to pour the tea water, it is suggested use the thumb or index finger to press the lid when pouring. We normally do not drink the first-time tea water, which can be use to pour on the surface of the teapot. Use the cloth to clean the teapot frequently, otherwise the tea dirt will cover the surface of the teapot and will reduce its value. A well-maintained teapot will have "natural-coating", which should be introvert "dark" or "dim" colour, on the surface of the teapot. Black tea, Puer tea and Oolong are best for teapot maintenance.
The teapot also need time to rest, normally a teapot should be rest in well-ventilated place (away from direct sunshine)for about 20 days after 2-3 months use , which can make the teapot better absorb the tea flavour and the "natural coating" more beautiful.
We source traditional, handmade loose leaf teas directly from tea farmers in China. We stock over 60 different types of tea that includes selections of Green tea, Oolong tea, Puer tea, White tea, Jasmine tea, Flowering Tea, Herbal tea and Taiwan Oolong teas. We also have a wide range of tea related products from exquisite porcelain teaware to glass teapots and tea cups, Yixing teapots, tea trays and everything else you need to make the perfect cup of Chinese tea.
The Chinese Tea Company is also delicated to promoting chinese tea culture. We regularly host Gongfu Cha tea ceremonry and tea tastings sessions in our little and cosy tea shop. We also now provide China Tea Toours - Please check out our website for more info.

Smithers Newsletter
For a long time I was looking for a pair of black and white striped chairs and found them overseas with Smithers of Stamford. I am very please and happy with my purchase. They came very well packed to my home in NJ, USA thank you!!!
Bought a lovely antique bookcase arrived safe and sound amazing company will definitely be ordering again
So despite a rocky start to the delivery, Team Smithers came good. The damaged and missing items were replaced in rapid order. I guess I can't blame them for items damaged in transit. The packaging was pretty good so just one of those unfortunate things. They kept me in the loop with emails and now I'm now the happy owner of 12 new dinning chairs
Super eclectic coffe shop, great service, excellent coffe and milk shake, worth a visit for sure

When sick, or tired, or far from home, everyone seems to yearn for the gastronomic equivalent of a warm sweater, a kiss on the forehead or a favourite blanket. Comfort foods nourish the soul as well as our bodies. They tend to be foods that remind us of simpler times. They are familiar, simple foods. While an oven baked meatloaf with mashed potatoes, cheesy macaroni and cheese and a steaming cinnamon infused apple pie have been staples for many of us, for some of us comfort food may include a delicious gooey lasagna, a complex curry, earthy borscht or udon noodles. What is your comfort food?
I think we all deserve a warm, comforting bowl of hot soup. The rich flavours and warming textures of cheese, beer and bread evoke memories of pure happiness. Back in the day this was probably one of the very first soups I ever had the pleasure of preparing. Then again, there is absolutely nothing so comforting to me as something featuring my ultimate comfort food... cheese. Here we are faced with cheese in the soup and the biscuits. As Ina Garten would say, "How perfect is that?" These flaky, buttery cheesy biscuits cry out for a dunk in a bowl of "hopped-up" soup. Cheddar was the cheese of choice but nothing would prevent you from using a myriad of hard cheeses languishing in your refrigerator. With this recipe, based on one from Eat Magazine, I make no apologies whatsoever for its cheese, butter and carbs but I do apologize for not having enough to share with more than 4 of my friends.
1 tablespoons butter
1 leeks, white part only, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 carrots, finely diced
1 celery stocks, finely diced
1-1/2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon dried mustard
sea salt, to taste
1-1/2 cups beer (amber ale or wheat beer)
1-1/2 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup homogenized milk
1 tablespoon local honey
2 cups Cheddar cheese, grated
In a medium-sized saucepan melt butter. Add leeks and minced garlic. Cover and saute until translucent, but not browned, approximately 10 minutes. Add diced carrot and celery sautéing for about 6 minutes until softened. Sprinkle with flour, ground mustard, and sea salt. Stir and cook for 1 minute.
Gradually add beer and simmer until liquid id reduced by half, 6 - 6 minutes. Gradually stir in stock, then milk. Cover and allow to simmer over low heat for 20 minutes, to allow flavours to develop.
While still on stove at a low temperature add grated cheese in small handfuls, stirring after each addition. Serve hot. The soup can be kept in the refrigerator up to 5 days. Reheat gently, do not boil.
Serves 4
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 cup cold butter
1 cup grated cheese
1 tablespoon spring onions or chives, thinly sliced
1 cup cream
1 egg, lightly beaten
Preheat oven to 425F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and ground mustard. Lightly toss in grated cheese and spring onions. With the large openings of a box grater grate cold butter into the flour mixture and toss with flour mixture to incorporate well.
In a small bowl mix the cream with the beaten egg.(set aside a little in the bottom of the bowl for brushing the biscuits). Pour into flour mixture. With a fork stir just until the mixture comes together. With your hands gather into a ball and shape into a 3/4-inch thick rectangle on the parchment paper lined baking sheet.
With a sharp knife cut dough into small squares and try and separate somewhat. Bake for 15 minutes then reduce the heat to 400F. Continue baking until tips are deep golden and biscuits are puffy, about 10 minutes more. Serve warm for dunking in the soup.

Devon Resin Bound Driveway
Fill in the form below or
call 01395 567071
Working throughout Devon we provide resin bound driveways
Resin Bound Surfacing is a resin bound aggregate surface for pedestrian and vehicular traffic that is hard-wearing, permeable and finished in a wide range of colours and styles making it an ideal, versatile solution for driveways, footpaths, playgrounds, car parks and patio areas.
Resin Bound surfaces are decorative, functional, seamless and slightly flexible with an open matrix system which allows water to drain through to the base. This efficient integrated drainage system eliminates water ponding and allows water to drain to planted areas or land drains so your drive is left puddle-free and looking its best. The surfacing may be applied to SuDS compliant bases and sub-bases, reducing the impact of urban development on flood risk and allowing water to flow into water courses.
The system uses a two-part resin mix which is combined with natural aggregate in a forced action mixer to completely bind the final mix together into a beautiful, seamless paving solution laid at 18-20mm thickness. Resin bound aggregate provides a tough, easy to maintain and aesthetically pleasing surface that gives the appearance of natural gravel without the associated disadvantages. An existing base of either tarmac or concrete can be utilised if it is of a suitable condition. Edgings created from brick, stone, timber or steel should be installed to retain and protect the resin bound surfacing.
Resin bound driveway surfaces are low maintenance and fuss free, meaning you can enjoy that fresh finish for longer without the need for constant cleaning or worrying about the risk of damage.
With eleven finishes available to choose from as standard, we can even create your very own bespoke resin aggregate mix using different colour resin to suit your requirements. There's also the ability to add a whole range of borders, motifs, patterns and much more to get a finish that suits, and reflects, your personal style.
