I stumbled across this scone recipe when I was doing some St. Patrick’s day recipe searching. I was targeting a biscuit to go with our Guinness Stew… and this little gem of a scone popped up. The facts are obvious that I cannot bypass a scone recipe. I just merely needed a reason to make…
It was my mom’s birthday last week and that obviously necessitated a fresh batch of scones. As a family, we default to funfetti on a regular basis. It seemed only natural to make some funfetti scones. Do you want to know the trick to funfetti? There is none. It’s literally just sprinkles in whatever you…
A couple days ago I made a list of all the leftover ingredients in my fridge and tried to figure out a way to use them – or just not waste them entirely. The list included: Christmas ham, sour cream, and radishes. Radishes are admittedly an odd one. I barely like them so this might…
It has been quite a while since my last batch of scones. I just haven’t really been cooking much this summer – and I normally make scones when I’m having people over for breakfast. My traditional scone recipe is rather intensive. It yields incredible results – but you are at it for a while. Lots…
I’ve been itching to make scones for several weeks now – and today was the day. When I put up my Christmas tree last week, I felt like I had some gingerbread scones on the brain. But with Thanksgiving happening, I pulled a switcheroo and went with some pumpkin. I am not a “pumpkin” person…
It wouldn’t be a holiday if I didn’t make scones. I only wish I could tell you that I made these scones with discounted candy canes – but I can’t. I bought the candy canes full price from CVS about 3 weeks before Christmas and then they proceeded to sit on my stairs until yesterday. …
For some reason, I’ve always shied away from the pumpkin craze. I might have had a pumpkin latte once. The idea of pumpkin cheesecake isn’t appealing to me. Muffins, cookies, etc. Just not my jam. Tomato jam is however actually my jam. Same for bacon jam. But I saw this Bon Appetit recipe on either Twitter…
It feels like it’s been awhile since I’ve cooked. The last meal was this fabulous garden inspired tomato thyme fish. I’m beginning to crave meals like this insanely good (but salty) fish dish from last Winter or this chicken tagine from several years back. The past few weekends in the kitchen have mostly been spent…
God Bless America… and God Bless scones. Especially patriotic ones. As I approached this holiday weekend, I obviously wanted to bake. Prior years have yielded some great recipes like Raspberry Smores Pavlova (2015), Dutch Pancakes (2012), a version of Strawberry shortcake (2012) or this Triple Berry Breakfast Bread (2014). But it’s really hard to resist…
I get a lot of magazines at my house – like more than 10, maybe more than 15… and to be honest, it used to be almost 20. But one of my favorite things in the world is just to sit and read in the sun. Since I rarely pay more than $10-$15 for a…
