Still painting - and cooking!


The painters are still here and our house is in chaos. I spent the afternoon huddled with the twins on a bed reading books. It was the cleanest warmest place and they needed to sleep and I needed a place to hide! It has been hard to try and keep out of the way, but still have a life- especially for Benji and Spence.
Today we did a little bit of cooking - the easiest scones ever.
1 cup fresh lemonade (ie just opened, not flat stuff)
1 cup cream (just normal stuff)
3 cups self raising flour
Pour the wet ingredients into the sifted flour and mix quickly. The usual scone rules apply- ie don't over work it and work quickly, but these are really harder to get wrong. Roll and cut out scones and put into a hot oven (200-220) until golden brown. Enjoy with jam and cream - Yummy :)
