New scones and new videos 🌷 fresh for spring!


​

Hey friends❣️

Is there a better flavor combo for scones? I don't think so.

​Blackberry Lemon Scones​

I do a lot of cooking and baking, that's an understatement! And when I want a break from the stress of my job, I bake scones. They're fun to make, always elegant, and a treat for me, especially since my favorite coffee ship no longer sells them.

Fruit scones are favorites of mine,

Fresh fruit scones tend to bake up a little looser and slightly unevenly because of the moist chunks of fruit, that's part of their charm.

If you love a sharper edged scone, try my date scones, or my classic cream scones.

Taste and texture are excellent! I doubled the recipe and baked in a 9 x 13 for 1:15. Will make again, good enough for company. Another winner, Sue!

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about? My recipes are bold and vibrant, but totally approachable ~ and my philosophy? We should all have the tools to feed ourselves well, and the confidence to cut loose a little in the kitchen. Food should be fun!
