Heart Shaped Scones


Our last baking exercise ended in tears, a flour shower and a newly developed fear of the hand mixer (for both me and my 4 year old). This time I pre-mixed the dough before Harrison came home from Bear Park – TV cooking show style (and here's one I made earlier). Damn I'm good! There's no crazy mixer monster madness, there's no flour in your ug boots (slippers people slippers!) Better still, the recipe, accurately measured with care and precision actually bakes as it was intended. It's a no flop guarantee. So your 4 year old can happily stamp out his heart shaped scones and go about his business (the average four year old is busier than a stock broker on Black Friday). So, everyone wins – except baby who can't eat yet and mum who is on a diet, but who will still secretly eat them between mouthfuls of secretly eaten marshmallows...Yum
