Scones Parties

Recent goal: Learn how to make great scones from scratch.

Update: Complete.

Believe it or not, I think I may have broken the curse of killing yeast, thus never being able to make anything that had to do with bread. Most people don't see this as a problem, but you see I have a Bosch. This is a piece of equipment that are made for chefs - and since I kill yeast I am dishonoring all chefs of the past.

A sweet girl from my ward puts together "scone parties" and invites the entire ward over. It's cheap, easy but SOOO fun. I want that. I love to entertain but lets face it -I can't shell out the tab just quite yet. So the solution is scones! Today was another of her "scone parties" and I made sure I got there first. I sat Harmony down and begged for her to teach me how to make them. She gave me the recipe, put an apron on me and taught me. I fried every single last scone - it rocked. So what does Martha do now?

Go home and make a big plate for her family. My brothers were amazed. We had scone sandwiches for dinner and scones with jam and honey for dessert.

I. Rock.

Even though I just outsmarted my yeast killing curses - I still want a bread maker to help me make actual dough and actual bread. I'm letting Santa know already ;)
