What did I do on Sunday after all..besides the reading I mean? Need you ask?
I baked.
No my dears, company did not arrive but I was in short supply of scones. Actually...no supply.
So I figured what a better day to bake...and besides, they're good to keep in hand and freeze beautifully. So with apron on, baking necessities at hand, I went ahead with a song in my lips and a smile on my face.
Here is my floured surface with some of the scones already cut out and being shaped. I make my scones smaller than norm. It makes for a nice portion...... especially if one is having more tea fare at hand. Good enough to have just one or an extra without the guilt. *smiles*
Here they are on the tray, egg wash on the tops, and ready to be put in the oven.
And here they are on a platter.
I drizzled them with a light orange blossom/citrus glaze.
Forgive the slight blurriness of the picture. I do not own the best camera.
After all is said and done, one must eat a scone accompanied by a cup of tea.
Mmm...clotted cream and preserves. What more can anyone ask for?
So there you have it my dears. Now the only question that remains is.....Who wants to join me for tea?
