Scones

Love these goodies

The ladies of Quota Club Coolum Beach would like to share their famous scone recipe:

INGREDIENTS:

- 4 cups Self Raising Flour   

- 300ml of cream

- 300 ml Milk                              

- Pinch of Salt

- 1 teaspoon sugar

Sift flour (very important), add other dry ingredients, add cream and milk to dry ingredients and mix to make a soft dough using a knife not a spoon. Place on a lightly floured board and pat out to a thickness of about 2.5cm. Cut with a floured scone cutter. Do not twist the cutter when removing, straight up and down is the go! Push left over dough together and lightly knead are cut remaining scones until all dough is used. Place on a lined baking tray and bake in a hot oven (225 degrees fan forced) for about 12-15 minutes until they are golden on the bottom and top. Serve with lashings of jam and whipped cream! Enjoy

** This recipe can be altered to be gluten free by replacing the Self Raising Flour with Gluten Free SR Flour AND 1 teaspoon of Xantham gum. Add dry ingredients as above.

Supporting Palliative Care in Our Community

At our August business meeting, we had the pleasure of welcoming Meg, a social worker from @cittamani, who gave us a very informative and insightful presentation about the wonderful work of Cittamani.

Meg shared information about the services Cittamani provides to palliative care clients in our local community, as well as the important support they offer to caregivers and families during what can be an incredibly difficult time.

It was comforting to learn about the range of practical and compassionate services available to clients and their loved ones during the final months of life. Cittamani works closely with healthcare teams, GPs and Queensland Health’s Specialist Palliative Care Service to ensure clients receive the appropriate medical guidance, care and support they need.

Community donations play an important role in helping Cittamani provide essential equipment free of charge to those they support. This can include wheelchairs, gel cushions and syringe drivers, as well as other equipment that can make a significant difference to the comfort and quality of life of palliative care clients.

We are grateful to Meg for taking the time to speak with us and for giving us a greater understanding of the invaluable work Cittamani does within our community.
