#datescones

Locked-down and rained-in, what can I do apart from baking some scones and brewing up a pot of @chai_walli spicy chai? There's only the three of us, but it's nice to get out some pretty vintage dishes. This morning, there was a lady bird hanging out in the kitchen, so I guess we're in luck!😅🐞 #lockdownbaking #rainy #rainymood #scones #datescones #afternoontea #chai #chaiwalli #homemade #vintagechina #vintageglass #ladybird #macro #nature #naturephotography (at Moyston, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTWa_IEh3Nh/?utm_medium=tumblr

All I wanted to do yesterday is having tea and eating homemade date scones seasoned with winter spices like cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, all spice, crowned by a dollop of clotted cream. That was not going to happen since our oven has decided to give up its gost. Perfect timing so close before the holidays, isn't it? Aaaargh.... At least I could get some visual pleasure finding this photo from the date scones I made last year around this time. Can't wait to have a working oven again! #scones #datescones #homemade #clottedcream #dates #antiquevictorianbutterknife #antiquebutterknife #baking #cinnamon #cardamon #nutmeg #allspice #holidays #winter (at San Diego, California)

You know a project is rough when the PM shouts scones for everyone involved #food #datescones #notmyfave #butimnotturningdownfreefood (at Christchurch, New Zealand)
