Quoting Michael Loo to Jim Weller <=-

a small gold mining town in Northern Ontario called Swastika.

I'm of two minds - it's true that the symbol used
to have a benign, even friendly connotation, but
that has changed dramatically and the current and
perhaps permanent dominant meaning can't be ignored.

You're right of course. The symbol has been tarnished beyond repair
except in the minds of a few Hindu and Buddhist scholars and
historians.

the decision was rightly left to the locals.

The Dept of Highways would put up road signs labeled Winston and
late on a Saturday night after the bars closed they would all came
down. Meanwhile the post offices in the south refused to forward
mail addressed to Swastika. Those sorts of shenanigans went on for
six years.

Title: Bella's Wheels of Fortune
Categories: Scandinavia, Cookies
Yield: 1 batch

100 g Butter or margarine
1 1/2 dl Sugar
1 Egg
3 1/2 dl Wheat flour
1 1/2 ts Baking powder
50 g Dark chocolate
1 ts Vanilline sugar

Stir fat and sugar fluffy and add the egg. Mix flour and baking
powder, fold it down into the batter and work it all to a dough.
Break the chocolate in pieces and melt in a waterbath.

Part the dough in two, mix down the chocolate in one part and the
vanilline sugar in the other. If the doughs are sticky, add some
more flour. Roll each part out onto a floured surface to a
rectangle, 30 x 20 cm.

Put the chocolate dough on top of the vanilla dough and roll them
together. Wrap the roll in plastic foil and leave in the fridge
for at least 8 hours. Cut the roll in approx 1/2 cm thick slices
and put on buttered baking-plates.

Bake in the middle of the oven, 175 C/350 F, for about 8 minutes.
Let cool on a rack and keep in air-tight jars.
