As soon as I have posted this I am off outside to my red seat for some sewing in the sunshine. The day started cold and damp but now is nice in the right spot outside. I need to handsew a black cat onto a ball; my eyes wouldn't see it last night. Black is now hopeless for me unless I sit in natural light.
Look at this; the scones this morning turned out fluffy and yummy. I used a recipe that freezes well apparently, using cream and lemonade. I also sat and finished the book I was reading this morning. ( not going to recommend it - probably might offend some people. )
At the moment R is off trying out his new mower. He traded the old one in which was similar but a bit smaller and older but the same type. It had done hours of work mowing parts of the orchard and surrounds.
Even after all that rain the Lucullia is bright and attracting bees.
Those scones look really good. I never heard of using lemonade but it's a great idea.
ReplyDeleteWe have been getting way too much rain here. It's supposed to be summer but you'd never guess it. I got my garden in but iI'm afraid the seeds will just rot in the ground, esp the potatoes
Those scones look wonderful...now I have to get into the kitchen and make some since the rock-hard lumps they sell locally and criminally label as scones just don't cut it!
ReplyDeleteI don't use lemonade but I do have some lemon and blueberry marmalade...
Do you use lemonade instead of or with cream in the scones?
ReplyDeleteWe are having such a cool Spring this year and really need some warmth to get our vegetables growing.

Yum....scones.....have been meaning to try the lemonade recipe, DH is quite partial to date scones.
ReplyDeleteyum yum xxx
ReplyDeleteI have that recipe, but have never made it- yet!
ReplyDeleteThat mower is a swish looking unit!
