I have given you a choice today. First up are sultana scones. Light and fluffy.
We can have them warmed through later, split and buttered with a nice hot drink.
Or would you prefer some buttery melt in the mouth shortbread?
These are really crumbly!
I was lucky to win a prize over at
Rosie's blog and received them during my birthday week too!
A lovely Cath Kidston strawberry patterned mug and some sweet little wooden heart embellishments.
Thank you Rosie they were packaged up beautifully!
The tulips are looking particularly good at the moment.
They will be adorning the table for this afternoons tea. Shall I reserve you a place? Would you like sultana scones or shortbread's ( I do have a few birthday cake bakes left too!) Have a lovely weekend, whether making and eating cakes or enjoying the garden and outside spaces. See you next week. x
Please, may I be greedy and a piece of shortbread and a scone? Veru pretty mug.
ReplyDeleteTWO bakes? I am in a bake-eating kind of mood Simone. I am now drooling I'm afraid.
ReplyDeleteA very belated Happy Birthday to you! Loved the cupcakes - so pretty.
Simone, you've spoiled us today!
ReplyDeleteTea will surely taste better if served into that pretty mug you got from the lovely Rosie!;-)

I look forward to your Friday cake bake ever week, please don't ever stop.
ReplyDeleteI notice that you sell some of your lovely things you make to at your 'Linden Grove Mercantile', pity you do not sell your cakes as well!
Oh please... I CAN'T make decisions like THIS!!! EVERYTHING sounds delicious!... LOVE that pretty mug you won! Congratulations! ~tina
ReplyDeleteOh, I'd really like to have some of both!
ReplyDeletePlease move to the US.... to my neighborhood... what time is tea? :-)
Scones or shortbread? What a choice both look wonderful! Glad your mug arrived in one piece - hope you enjoy your first cuppa in it with one of those lovely cakes you have been baking:)
ReplyDeleteoohh so yummy! loving the gift too and how fab that it should arrive on your birthday week :-) Happy birthday !
ReplyDeleteA scone for me please - with lashings of jam and cream!
ReplyDeleteI can actually make scones myself, they always turn out, unlike some of my other attempts at baking!
Have a nice weekend
Love Kathy xxx
Hiya - shortbread would be my choice. It looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteMy gran always had homemade shortbread in her house and brought some whenever she visited and it was delicious. The stuff I make is good but not as good as hers - sigh!
The tulips are lovely. Juliex
lucky you,winning Rosie's giveaway. the mug and little hearts are gorgeous!
ReplyDeletemmmmmmmm i am very partial to melt-in-the-mouth shortbread and yours looks particularly scrumptious. would you mind if i helped myself to two pieces? as well as a buttered scone, if that's ok.
your baking really is the business. i still can't get over how perfect your birthday cupcakes were.
i am just wondering whether you'd consider giving us a little tutorial some time on how to decorate them ?
i need to think about what to bake for next friday too...ohh, that thought is making my tummy rumble ;o)

Your scones look soooo light! Gorgeous post as usual; very inspiring!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I'm a bit late for afternoon tea! I daresay only a few crumbs left on the cakeplate now. Great baking. Rosie was very generous in her giveaway. Congratulations on winning the lovely mug Simone. x
ReplyDeleteImpossible to choose - I'd love a taste of both, though with shortbread the problem is I can't stop after a taste!
ReplyDeleteFab mug!
Yep I can't decide so I guess I'll have to have a scone and the shortbread. Followed by a birthday cake becase I wouldn't want them to feel left out.
