The problem is, the scone has sugar in it and the biscuit does not. That makes them not very much like each other.

I should say something on topic here too. My Russian never got good enough read much. It always seemed like too much work. I've not even looked at anything for 10 years or so. I do read authors other than U.S. - Canadian, British, Australian, and South African that I can think of off the top of my head.
