Scones for a Gloomy Day


The weather has been so cold this week.  Grey clouds, drizzle and today that very gloomy feeling when all you want to do is sit by the fire, read a book and generally laze away.

After I had read the morning papers I decided to make some lentil and tomato soup for lunch and a batch of scones for afternoon tea.  I searched through my recipe books - not sure why as I have made scones a thousand times, just wanted to do something different.  I came across the Scone recipe made by Paul Hollywood which I made last year.  They are made from strong plain flour with the addition of baking powder.  Such a great recipe that makes about a dozen scones.  I plan to eat them filled with raspberry jam and butter.  Of course you can't beat cream in scones but still for a Friday afternoon they will be just perfect.
