We are getting some much needed rain this afternoon. Even a little lightning and thunder! This is a good day for rainy weather. Elle hasn't been feeling well with a sick tummy and fever. I've had a mountain of laundry to do today so I've been plugging away at it. I still have a few loads to go. Elle gave me 3 extra loads to do this morning....bedding and blankets. Poor Girl!
Well, I think that I am going to go bake something. Rainy days always put me in the mood to bake. I found this recipe for scones a few months ago and have been wanting to make them but kept forgetting to pick up the few ingredients I didn't have on hand. I now have them in the pantry. Maybe it will be scones for dinner. After a bowl of cereal.....Scott's traveling this week. Update: I made the scones and they were delicious! I followed the suggestions in one of the comments for the recipe and increased the butter to 1/3 cup, omitted the ginger and added lemon zest to the dough and was really happy with the results. Perfect with a cup of coffee or tea.

Oh my gosh, those scones look delicious. One of my favorite little cafes has lemon scones that I just adore. Let us know if you made them!
That is the one good thing about the husband being gone...dinner is kind of anything goes. :) Not that Patrick even cares, but I have some hang up about serving a "regular" meal when he's home. (he is also gone this week and that is the only good thing I can think of) :)
Hope Elle feels better soon.
Thank you for sharing the link to the scone recipe. They sound wonderful!
Your blog is very lovely!

Yay, you made them! :) I'm going to save this recipe for my next rainy day.
