Old Friends

It is always lovely to connect with friends whether new ones or ones you have had for years. Today was a very special day because a friend and her daughter came over who I knew since I was fifteen!! What a blessing it was since she has never been to my house before.

She moved to Hawaii from the state I live in now back when she was in her early twenties. I lived in Hawaii then while my father was a pastor of a church. I was blessed to stay in her home two years ago when I went back after many years. Another blessing!!

Having a friend over when you live a ways from everyone is a real treat. It is good to have some food to share while you visit. As I lay in bed last night I thought over what I had in the house and came up with scones. So that is what I made this morning and popped them in the oven, just before they arrived.

Scones:

3 cups flour

2 Tablespoon sugar

1/2 tsp salt

2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 cup (plus just a tad more) milk

2 eggs

1/4 butter softened (or Crisco)

Mix ingredients. Roll out and sprinkle with sugar. Cut into small squares. Put a spoonful of your favorite preserves into the center of square. Fold each square in a triangle. Bake for 15 minutes at 450 degrees.

Here is the procedure I described above in pictures:

Just had to have a cookie too!!

I would love to have you stop by too!! 

So, stay awhile and lets visit together 

while you go through my past posts :-)

In Christ Alone my hope is found!!
