Morgan Bellthe best thing you will ever put in your mouth . . .
April 26th 2008 16:04
its like eating a handful of fluffy white cloud . . .
sometimes my mother turns our kitchen into a little mini english bakery and delights the family with piping hot treats from the oven . . . more recently she was reminded of the technique of mixing scone batter with the fizz of lemonade to give that light fluffy lift that practically disolves in your mouth . . .
i am not a cook by any stretch of the imagination but the british colonist in me feels the need to press my culture on to the rest of you and INSIST you attempt this recipe next time you have an afternoon tea:
NEVER FAIL SCONES
1 1/2 CUPS SR FLOUR
PINCH SALT
1/2 CUP CREAM
1/2 CUP LEMONADE
MIX ALL TOGETHER & PUT ON TO A FLOURED BOARD
CUT UP AND PLACE ON TRAY
BRUSH TOP LIGHTLY WITH MILK
BACK IN MODERATE TO HOT OVEN (15 MIN)
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word scone derives perhaps from the Middle Dutch schoonbrood (fine white bread), from schoon (pure, clean) and brood (bread).
Scones are heaven! Serve with jam and cream and pretend youre in a cottage in ye olde england or wee bonny scotland . . . divine!
this guy is definately not in our kitchen! haha

yeah scones are one of those traditonal "plain" foods that i cant get enough of, like yorkshire pudding, bread and butter pudding, madeira cake, or pork crackling . . . maybe a bit of deep fried newspaper haha
Ruby,
do you find its easy to read some hidden undertone into everything i say lol
Tracy,
yeah im with you, the most ive ever baked was packet-mix muffins . . . instructions: add water haha you cant go wrong! and even then the ready-made ones are so much more convenient! you need to find someone who loves baking (like a mum or a grandma) and give them the recipe and they might let you eat some when try realise how delicious they are!
Michaelie,
BAHAHAhaha rock cakes! bounce them of the walls! im assured this recipe "never fails" due to the lemonade adding the essential fluff! actually did you ever see Patsy on AbFab talk about a strapping young stud saying "buns so tight they were bouncing off the walls"? haha see theres a baking theme throughout!
thanks for all the comments everyone!

hi epiphanie,
oh definately try poring yourself a lovely cup of english breakfast tea and top your scones with strawberry jam and whipped cream . . . guarenteed heart attack! haha
i think englands probably changed a bit since my grandparents were kids, youre probably most likely to sample a world class curry than the boring old tea and scones set-up!

The humour is essential! The real reason I came and read this post - the pic is not enough - the double entendre in the title and the fact that Morgan wrote it, and she's always good for a laugh.

she told me she was never going to visit my blog again, obviously shes been peeping in my cyber window . . . i didnt realise she was on the censorship board of orble, how can anyone get so offended about scones? haha
first im in trouble for saying my parents are too noisy (CLICKHERE to see more . . . ), now im in trouble for praising my mothers culinary skills? go figure! *shrug*
is it my fault the orble community love nudity?
and what is her obsession with my love life?
have i somehow indicated im using orble to try to find a husband?
im an asexual faghag with chronic back pain for fucks sake, marriage isnt exactly at the forefront of every good womans mind, look at people on my friends list: gay, gay, bi, lesbian, gay, feminist, film-reviewer, faghag, gay, gay, lol im happy babe, queer and proud, i dont need match-making advice from the humour-less and nasty
her little attack can be found in full if you CLICKHERE
thanks Ruby, Tracy and Michaelie for the kind words and compliments, im glad there are some intelligent sassy women out there who can appreciate irony and value a sense of humour!
(i didnt want to give her the satisfaction of pushing her points up by commenting, im sure more people will read my response over here

She certainly has it in for you but you've handled it well Morgan. Far better than i would have. Anyone with sense or at least a sense of humour could see that there is no maliciousness in your posts. A naked man whipping cream is not offensive to anyone, namely because men do not have a history of been objectified. It's not sleazy, it's hilarious! I think it was humour and curiosity that led people to click over....we see naked women everywhere, selling everything from jeans to beer to broadband internet. It's about time someone turned the tables a little.
Just keep doing what you do and you go girl!

thanks for the support, i appreciate your thoughtfulness!
i dont really know what all this recent antagonistic behaviour is about, so far she is my sole critic, everybody else on orble is really lovely . . .
so far ive created 75 posts (all from the one personality) and theres a naked man on only one of them, the majority are about film or the arts . . .
since the pic display in the popular posts list arrived my post scores have been way down across the board: an article on prince william (33), the wilhelm scream (23), australian cheese (22), starbucks (22), a youtube comedy series (22), and film reviews of Cheaters and The Queen (22 each) . . .
meanwhile posts featuring topless women were consistantly ranking really high, i wondered if there was any correlation?
i wondered if a seemingly boring post with a nude pic would rate well?
well i think we only need to check the rating on this one to see the way the system works, the point is its not so much about the content of your post as the way you market it . . .
i find it very hard to believe that my scone baking kitchen manager "mr whipped cream" is the sleaziest pic anyone has ever seen on the internet or in the media . . .

She has her new fobz one, plus the two really inane ones, Holly and Techno, and katyzzz and Krystal, who seem to be used to convert the world to her conservative ideals, while putting everyone else down. Months ago I asked her about the other 'personalities' and she got narky, but if she was going to be so obvious and humourless about it what did she expect? It's ridiculous, and really, you just have to laugh - any excuse, hey.
This is from October when I first asked her about her muliple personality disorder.
This is one of the posts which annoyed me.
This is the post that made me wash my hands of her.

Michaelie says..katyzzz is also Krystal...GROAN...hmmm...ohh nooo....
now it feels a bit scary, like Norman Bates in the old roadside hotel....
well, anyway, I have just previously posted a retort to "Krystal" on her nasty 'nude' photo attack post!
I have brought up the hypocrisy of her attack, on you Morgan, and the gorgeous cream puff whipper image, because of the image she used herself in a recent post, which Raven took offense to, as demeaning to men, and although I can laugh at almost anything, in this context, it means Krystal/katyzzz is full of the proverbial.
What she accuses you of, using lurid images to attract votes, is exactly what she has done, the only difference being, her image is not pretty eye candy, it is an ugly satirical sexist cartoon.
cheers...keep up the good work...and is katyzzz really on the "censorship" panel??? How on earth could that happen??? All too confusing for me!

I think, Morgan, you hit it on the head: the Orble community loves a little bit of skin. Not full out, but just enough to get the juices flowing.
It's a dangerous line to tread, though... while I like the pics, I'm adamant about not forcing people to see things that they don't want to see. If you think your post is going to be racy, you can flag it with 'Mature' and then the pics don't get shown on the sidebars (I think).
This has to be your new motto/signature/tagline:
"go eat a scone and chill out!"
Also, Wordophilia was not deleted because of katyzzz... back then, there was a core group of female writers, very active in the Orble community. David crossed the line with a very derogatory post, several of the writers were quite upset. Previous to this, we had warned him a few times, but this was too much.
Then David started a new blog, and he agreed that he had posted some offensive material in the past. He was very amenable and pleasant about the entire situation, actually. Well, that's how I remember it - it was over a year ago, I think.

Can't cook 'em though... that's the truth, I can cook anything but not scones. It has been unanimously decided amongst my friends that I would have more success in the Hockey Puck business ... but I will get the secret to it one day and work out what makes them rise properly
Thanks for the eye-candy too ..I needed that... boo to those who don't 'get it,' your posts are interesting and warmly-witty, at least ... and they don't give me a sudden overwhelming need to jump off the tallest building I can find *yawn* ...like some I could mention.
Would it be considered 'correct' or 'exploitive' if this was a semi-naked woman?
Whilst I would draw the line at pronography, I agree with Cibbuano and others here, a little "spice" is always nice ... especially in cinnamon scones!

My two-bobs worth on this question and as I've said before, with the exception of out-and-out pronography, or anything which encourages pedophillia - on what is/was intrinsically a "writers" community ... I say, all is fair game and if you do not agree with someone's view/personality: do not read, comment or vote ... MOVE ON.
I don't like many of my neighbours, but I don't go and bang on their doors and hurl abuse at them becuase (to me) they behave like animals, now do I?

Oh I love all the drama. I just can't believe I missed so much of it.
I think Cib raises a good question
I actually do like interacting with people whose viewpoints I disagree with. It forces me to assess what it is I believe and why. And when they raise points I know little of, it encourages me to research and thus broaden my own knowledge. In fact it was interacting with ultra patriots who think Bush is doing a damn fine job that inspired me to start blogging in the first place and gave me the idea for the article I just had published. So yeah, sometimes its good to sleep with the enemy.

Tracy,
who knew scones were so contoversial?
hi Cibbuano,
i think "go eat a scone and chill out!" should definately be my motto, it basically sums up my thoughts on most things!
i interpretted "mature" to mean the graphic discussion or depiction or sex or violence, not a happy-go lucky male model with exposed torso . . . but regardless i think when some people decide to launch a personal assault they will use anything as an excuse . . . it can be hard to avoid somebody who is following you around with taunts and insults, although i agree with you in essence that name-calling and mud-slinging is completely pointless and i am surprised at people who instigate such things unprovoked?
thanks for the info on "wordophilia", im sure everyone was wondering exactly what happened, it is good when the senior orblers pass on their knowledge!
Ruby,
I had no idea about this multiple personality thing myself until michaelie raised the topic in the comments of this post and since then many fellow orblers have come out and substanciated the claim . . . i completely agree that debate is healthy and worthwhile, but outright slander and hatred is unnecessary (i know you have been the target yourself many times)
Lilla,
hello lovely lady! its never too late! we always appreciate your imput!
i wish you every success with the scone cookery, they are a delightful treat served warm out of the oven . . . dont eat hockey pucks . . . and dont jump off tall buildings . . . im glad you liked the recipe, pic, and general concept of the post . . . all that you say is fair and balanced as usual!

Haha it's great when that happens with the comments!
Re: offensive posts - I personally find her posts/comments vilifying you/others far more offensive than Scone Boy. As D pointed out on Crystal's post about you, what is offensive is very subjective, and she is not so much airing her opinions about more risque pics as attacking you personally, as she always does.
It's all well and good to discuss and debate - but there is no point with someone like that.
I thought pretty much everyone knew about her 'personalities' now - I can understand those who didn't feeling a bit betrayed. The way she uses them is not reasonable (as other Orblers use of multi-tags is) or fun. It's completely self serving, as far as I can see.
Trace, I would bake some for you but I like you too much!
Wordophilia - good to finally find out what happened. I had only read comments from afterwards - I just knew David and katyzzz had clashed.
I wonder if THiCK is stalking this post right now...

the main evidence being what appears to be "forgetting to sign out" of one persona and leaving a comment signing off with a name different to the writing profile, i have personally seen this happen between katyzzz and techno, and between katyzzz and fobz, and between katyzzz and krystel . . . i havent observed any other "technical errors" where (apparently) orble confuses user profiles due the some glich in the matrix except for within this group of people
it is possible krystel is a character designed for proganda towards young woman about marriage and the character is purposely dumbed down to appeal to what the older writer believes the demographics intelligence is?
also, i disagree that katyzzz doesnt use provocative posts, heres my favourite one CLICKHERE for "Do you want to clean up Orble, rid it of filth, depravity and profanity? - I do" which is basically a carbon copy of the krystel anti-sleaze one . . . in general she seems to post alot of titles that pose questions but dont really welcome answers
for someone in a glass house she sure is throwing alot of rocks
Tracy,

I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW MANY TIMES SHE HAS SCREWED THIS UP!!!! And writing about the same topics, using the same pics obviously saved on her computer, having the same punctuation errors... it's so obvious! katyzzz and krystal really seem to be trying to convert the world to her own twisted version of Victorian ideals, and Holly and Techno and Fobz seem to be there to write inane things and get all the posts on the default page, not to mention back up the agenda of the first two 'personalities', so that it seems like a whole bunch of people believe it.
ABSOLUTELY - WHICH IS IDIOTIC!
YEP - and not only that, but she uses very obvious techniques that are quite obviously designed to get her maximum traffic with minimum effort. I wonder what she really gets out of this. I can only assume she gets regular money, because that's what she's really obsessed with (after Morgan's personal life and converting everyone into her self-created role model for women - crystal).

I'LL SAY! This used to amuse me when she wasn't pissing me off, and so I didn't say anything about knowing who she was for ages. But when she started becoming aggressive towards people giving genuine input on her posts, and when she generally started getting bitchier than usual, I got to the point where I couldn't stand it anymore. I think she has brought a really bad feeling to Orble, especially of late, but not just then from what I have heard - far more damaging (especially for people who don't know she is multi-headed - imagine if I didn't tell Morgan and she thought several different people were being nasty to her)... what was I saying? Oh yes, far more damaging than a tongue in cheek half-nudie pic!

..I said she didn't like provocative posts, not that she didn't use them. See what I mean?
By the way, that "Filth" post was an attack on David..I remember it very well! Oh, these Orble wars. Gotta love 'em.

im so intrigued by this David person, hes like a mythical creature himself!
it seems neither katyzzz or krystel like other people having provocative posts but both like using them
ahh michaelie,
i continue to be entertained by how strongly you feel about this!
although you make a good point, if you are a new orbler and it seems several people are attacking you it could make you feel very unwelcome and not want to participate anymore . . . knowing it is one person with an axe to grind is far easier to digest . . . otherwise you would feel as though you are being ganged up on
michaelie, i wonder if anyone thinks you are one of my multiple personalities? haha
im not blogging to make money or play mind-games with people (that seems strange that others are doing that), i simply enjoy brainstorming with other writers . . . it would be more enjoyable if i wasnt being called a sleazy creep by unpleasant people with alterior motives
i note Jon moved the anti-sleaze post to the writers forum so its not on the home page for outsiders to view

A *lot*.
What I'm not getting is this apparent obsession with what kind of men are attracted to you. I've seen that referred to several times now from both of them.

yeah im not sure what thats all about really . . . is it like a curse? write something i dont like and be damned to remain single for all eternity? haha *feins horror* oh no! lol
if you want me to take a wild stab in the dark i think the "men" she keeps mentioning are those terrible fags i kick around with and support and we will all never be happy (ie: married . . . to each other i presume?) if we dont cleanse our minds of those impure thoughts that make us queer . . . just a theory, she hasnt exactly been clear
i speculate she has taken my "pro-choice" stance personally on a blog i commented (where i also brought up homosexuality) and has been waiting around to have a jab at me for practically anything rather than debating the actual issues (CLICKHERE for "Should Abortion and Suicide be Crimes")
