show me the scones (or you the scones, actually)

Proof that I really do bake everything I say I bake. Finally Sally had a scone recipe that didn't call for heavy cream, so I jumped on that. Oh, right, the name: Raspberry Almond Buttermilk Scones. And can I just plug Wegmans for a second? I bought my raspberries there and they still haven't molded yet. Hopefully I can make more glaze for those unglazed scones tomorrow.
Anyway, the time-consuming part was grating that stick of frozen butter. I don't think that's something I'll be doing again without a food processor. Don't get me wrong, the end result was worth it, just...tedious. And you should know, the dough will be really sticky. Reealllly sticky. Keep your flour handy.

But after all that, I'm not complaining. Just tired of telling you about all the stuff I bake but not actually showing you. So maybe I'll do it again sometime.

fun on a bun...

Technically, the bun is optional but I just have to recommend these Spice-Rubbed Chicken Breasts.  I thought it sounded like a different kind of chicken sandwich for me and I'd never made a rub before. I have plenty of recipes but none which triggered an immediate response of, "I must try this." Also, I'd never purchased cumin before. It smells like the primary ingredient in a packet of taco seasoning, so you can see why it would need to be balanced out with brown sugar. Actually, all of the spices work well together, even the little tang of thyme. I think I'll be trying it on salmon next.
