To leave my lovely DH after this?

[Hoppinggreen]

I have just been in the kitchen and could smell burning from the toaster. I asked DH and he said it was the SCONE HE WAS TOASTING!!??
Nobody toasts a scone do they? To be fair he’s from forrin but he’s been here long enough to know better.
It is a leaving offence or does he just need some baked good re-education?

they served a (delicious) full Sunday roast, with rice

Excuse me?

The assistant in my local bakery told me to do this with stale scones. Surprisingly nice!

Yep, a roast with rice
All the usual stuff, meat, veg, roasties, Yorkshire pudding etc
And rice
Weirdos

Well there was your first red flag OP.

They also serve apple sauce with roast chicken.

Bloody awesome cakes and desserts though

Is he from the Caribbean?

I just want to try a toasted scone now

YABU. Toasted scones are the next best thing to fresh out the oven ones!

Never mind toasting them (but really?!), who lets a scone go STALE? I think you all should be left

I’m amazed and shocked beyond words that some people have never heard of toasting scones , absolutely yummy with loads of butter melting lusciously on top.

TOASTED SCONES???? Has the world gone mad? I might have to try them though, just for research, obviously.

Never heard of anyone roasting a scone.

It’d be like roasting a cupcake.

Tut! The law regarding non-yeasted bakery products is quite clear: soda farls - perfectly acceptable toasted, scones - absolutely not, they must be served still slightly warm from the oven but never toasted. Possibly your chap confused it with a current teacake (a yeasted product and therefore acceptable to toast at all times)? Some re-education, possibly with the aid of diagrams, may help.

In the interests of research I may have to toast a scone (rhymes with gnome - sort of).
Rice on a roast dinner is an abomination though.

applauds and goes to live with littlemiss

Oyster no, he’s European.
I will confirm the exact country if anyone guesses where he’s from

Yanbu.

My husband has been threatened with divorce for the way he recently cut some celery when he just wanted part of the head (across so we are left with lots of really short stalks, rather than breaking off whole stalks).

Toasted a fruit scone? In a toaster? (Said in the manner of Lady Bracknell natch).

Whispers: I once toasted some ryvita (runs away to hide in shame).

To toast one scone could be considered misfortune, to toast two looks like carelessness.

Czech republic?

I toast scones. They taste way better that way than “raw”.

I think he’s Polish.

And I come from a place where scone rhymes with gone, and we also fry them with bacon and eggs. In lard. So there.

It's like some weird twilight zone, people agreeing about toasting scones. Bunch of weirdos.

I'm with you Op, I'll help you pack your husbands bags then we can start a support group.

I recently discovered Belgians put apple sauce with chicken. My friend isn’t a natural cook so I made her check with her mum that Belgians did that, it wasn’t just what was in the cupboard

Scone toasting is on at least its 3rd generation in my family. Apparently granny used to buy the day old ones at the bakers to save money, hence the toasting, but they genuinely are much nicer toasted regardless of age.
