As I was looking through my recipes, I noticed that I did not update more different scones here as I felt that if one is game enough to try making scones, you will try doing the different scones using the basic scone recipes and try with sultana, pumpkin, chocolate, etc. So I decided that I should not take away the joy from you to experimenting around, Like what my dear husband also says we are to teach our boys to fish and not to give them fish.
