And I don't have a very good history of making them!

I'm making two batches - Cheese & Chive and also Plain with raspberry jam and cream.

Now, the cheese ones are in the oven already but the light in my oven has gone so I cannot peer in to see if they have shot up like a rocket in Florida and so I shall simply wait! The last lot I made had an erectile distinction problem and we're as flat as a fart so fingers crossed this lot will be perfection!

I am also very bored on this lovely sunny Sunday and so I hope god is on my sconey team.

Also, it's Scone as in Bone and absolutely not Scon as in gone.

They look great. I find the BBC Good Food recipe foolproof after decades of making flat bricks.

I am making garibaldi biscuits for the first time ever today. Going great so far...

That's where both my recipes were from today! I love the BBC Good food website!

Ha ha! That's why your scones look identical to mine then!

Garibaldis, for anyone doubting my baking prowess.... 😃

@Nightblindness Ooooh they look lovely!

Saturday in our house is curry night! I make everything from scratch! I have mastered my Naan Breads and last night did my own bhajis too - I've failed miserably to get them 'right' before but last nights were immense! This weekend has been a culinary success!! 🤣

Long may it last!

(my second batch of garibaldis may have just come out slightly burnt - oops!)
