Scones
Caite
This blog has not been abandoned. It just looks that way because its winter and day trips to tearooms happen a lot less in the winter. But I am already planning some trips for 2008.
However, to keep some scone action going in the meanwhile, I have decided to start a campaign of eating cream teas in the privacy of my home. There’s no point reviewing the quality of cups of tea that I make, because of course I make a good cup of tea. But I can let you know what I think of the various ready-made scones available in the supermarkets and bakeries of our good nation.
So hold yourself in readiness, and the scone joys will recontinue very soon…

Dear Scone Lover,
I would be most interested to get a full description of the perfect scone. Great Jam, in your case strawberry and oodles of cream are essential. Superb cup of tea essential too.
I know that you prefer juciy fruit, but what about the consistency. Some come out almost solid as if all the air has been compressed out of them, or do you prefer a light and airy scone. Do you prefer them moist or a little dryer.
What is your feeling about a scone straight from the oven, or eating them cold?
With much fascination, as one scone lover to another.
