Got bored. Made some almond Christmas biscuits. Won't last until Christmas though.

My mother got into a Christmas biscuit phase once after finding some recipe and they were really very good. Unfortunately, the following year she confused cayenne with cinnamon with the obvious tragic results. My father and I didn't even kid her about the mistake, well not much, but she refused to ever make them again.

Been baking our own scones as we can never find a decent "home made" scone in coffee shops here. They all seem to use that bakery instant mix which gives a bready texture. So these are Mr.Tod's efforts this week: Ready for the oven: Cut out square for a change and like it better for cutting in half. Turned out OK;

And now for my lazy man's scone in the "Muffin" style as they were cheese, rosemary and parsley.

Mark this might not be you at all....In case some might wonder "How can these elderly men .....like my Toddy, start baking ? Never set foot in the kitchen for over 50 years of marriage - Always been my little job, but now frustrated and with more time on their hands, the oven is calling... I'm all for it. Now I even get warm scones laced with butter and marmalade for breakfast (In bed a lot of the time...Shhhhh!).

While you're lolling in bed like a queen, you might think about your poor peasant friends who don't have that recipe.

Never set foot in the kitchen for over 50 years of marriage The not setting foot in the kitchen thing isn't applicable as it's me who does 95% of the cooking and always has done. I'll not mention the elderly part as I'm getting there.
