These sound like something Diefenbaker would love, so I will use my Diefenbaker icon. (Do you watch/have you watch Due South?)
What really prompted me to reply to this, was to ask if you make your own puff pastry. I tried it once -- a very long time ago -- and it took me ages and turned out rubbish. At the time, I don't think I could have bought puff pastry in our grocery shop (this was when I was a kid, living with my parents on a farm in very rural Sweden). Here in the UK, I find that most grocery largish grocery shops will sell you ready made, and rolled out, puff pastry, often of a few different varieties (frozend, chilled, 'light'). For awhile I made spinnach and chickpea rolls, using puff pastry, for my lunches which I really enjoyed. I should have a go at making them again, when things quieten down at work...
