One can hope that is the case, but I am not comforted by that
statement, as it only optimistic speculation and I have a low
opinion of governments. I really believe the clown efforts at the
airport really is their best effort.

On the lighter side, Roslind just returned from a trip to Edmonton
and brought back a huge tupperware container full of incredibly
delicious pastries, bars and squares made by a niece who owns a
bakery. With a big grin, airport security threatened to confiscate
it.... for their lunch.

     Title: [Brunei] Custard Tarts
Categories: Malaysian, Desserts, Pies
  Servings: 24

      3 c  all-purpose flour
      1 ts salt
      1 c  vegetable shortening
      5 tb hot tap water
      3    eggs
    1/3 c  sugar
  1 1/2 c  milk

All ingredients should be prepared before you start cooking; this
will save time and make cooking the dish easier and more enjoyable.

Combine flour and 1/2 teaspoon of salt in mixing bowl. Cut in
shortening until mixture resembles bread crumbs. Mix in enough water
to form a dough ball. Cut in half.

Roll out each half on lightly floured surface until 1/8 inch thick.
Cut 12 circles from each half 3 inches in diameter.

Fit pastry circles into greased muffin cups, pressing sides so they
reach rims.

Beat eggs. Stir in sugar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Gradually
blend in milk. Spoon about 2 tablespoons egg mixture into each
pastry.

Bake in preheated 350F (180C) oven until knife inserted in center
of custards comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove tarts from pan.
Cool on wire racks.
