Catching up...

Hello! I have not posted our breakfasts for Friday and Saturday. We didn't really eat breakfast Friday. We spent the early hours making an unexciting (but delicious!) pasta salad for lunch. We went on a field trip to C-Arrow Stables and went on an hour long trail ride on horses! It was very fun!

Today (Saturday) we ate spiced up leftovers including eggs. I (margaret) have swimming lessons every saturday at the YMCA, so we didn't have much time. I am making bread at the moment, so I will update in a bit with the pics.

Scone #2: Coffecake Scones- A floury concoction

Pun intended. I forgot if I put in 1 1/4 cup flour or 2 1/4 cups flour as intended. The dough was very sticky. So I gradually added tablespoon after tablespoon of flour until you could handle it. I just should have added 1 cup. It was very good! It spread a few inches... But I think that is ok. I made a flower on it with cranberries. It kind of cracked on the dry crumble topping. I was running out of butter! It called for half a stick (in the topping recipe), but I had to use two tablespoons :). Oh well!

Scones #1:Buttermilk Scone

Today, I have made a Buttermilk Scone with raisins. I didn't have any currants, so I used raisins instead. Doesn't it look happy?
