I've been busy...honest I have. Baking each week as usual....suppers as usual... I cook every day. Just keep putting off posting til I do something else and all of sudden it is midnight and then...I think I'll do it in the morning...which I don't because that's when I read your blogs...and then..it's noon and then...well...you see what happens.
These were yesterday's strawberry scones. I made them for my garbage guys. Yep....I bribe them. This is what they took away with smiles on their faces. I told them straight out that I was bribing them as well as saying thank you for always taking everything I put out there. They said "bribes are good" .... and cheerfully loaded up the 5 bags of grass, leaves and shrub clippings...as well as 5 twined 4 foot long bundles of Nanking bush ... an old length of garden hose and a complete, full grown, dead spirea shrub. I love my guys.... they treat me well.
However, one of them did mention they wondered why they hadn't seen me for some time.... to which I said..uh, oh.... I must be falling behind on the muffin quota. Sorry...I'll attend to that straight away.... so, two weeks in a row they've had warm from the oven goodies. Next week, if it is not raining... I don't know...they could be out of luck, I may be out golfing....finally. But, yesterday they picked up two more houses after ours..turned the corner and parked the huge truck in front of my neighbour's ...and proceeded to have their coffee and fresh scones. Hahahahha.... that did make me laugh. Doesn't take much to amuse me.... it made my day.
Thanks guys!! I love ya...
Next week.... double chocolate chunk cookies....
