“But I can give you any of these for free,” gesturing to the other #baked goods. “How many do you want? Would you like a #chocolate #croissant? A #lemon #scone? What about #cookies? A #doughnut?”
“Free?” I questioned. “I should pay for something.”
“Why? I’m glad to give you these. And I’ll see you again, soon.”
I left with a bag abrim with #delicious, housemade treats and a #smile on my face — all free!

British people famously call cookies 'biscuits.' Here's how they define 'American biscuits.'
I chickened out of a group walk this morning because of the wet weather forecast. It brightened up in the afternoon so I walked across to Cragside. Quite a change from a couple of weeks ago when they were turning people away, hardly anyone was there. I tried the scone of the month, savory cheese and marmite! I loved it but I expect it will divide opinion.
Once again, the ⓥ scones are in the oven. The house smells soooo good. 🥰😋 Lemon Rosemary scones with Cranberries this time.
Fresh from the oven, these scones taste like something from your favorite café! #food #scone #recipes

I took a trip to Cragside and tried out the National Trust's new scone of the month. It was a nice walk with autumn colours and the calm day giving clear reflections in Tumbledon lake. The scone of the month is "red dragon", served with onion marmalade and grated mature cheddar. Personally I'd have classed the " onion marmalade" as a chutney, but pedantry aside, it really was delicious.
For anyone better at baking than I am they publish a recipe.
