We have some new friends!

A home schooling family who live just up the road from us, go to one of our friends churches and work in the same space!

We went to the park and played frisbee with their 7 kids ranging from 19 yrs to 15 months. Then we headed back to our place for a BBQ. Following that we went to basketball and took their 4 oldest kids. Great time had by all and more playing to come I am sure.

I haven't bothered shaving for about 10 days now. Up until about 2 days ago the kids thought it was prickly. Last night they were rubbing the beard and saying how soft it was but Jude wants it gone, and I have to go see clients later this week so I guess it will go.

I had a dream about making scones last night with meat in them. While thats a bit weird, I can make really good scones - in fact I have even won prizes for them.

So I thought I would give the recipe I use and the creative combinations of "special" ingredients that make them good.

Scones follow a basic recipe that has the same proportions of things. I'm using 3 of everything below, but you could use 1 or 2 or 5 if you wanted.

 

Start with a large enough mixing bowl for how much you are going to make.

Did a lot of running today - ran 2 kms in 12 minutes on the treadmill as a warm up and then about another 4-5km or so in jogging interspersed with short sprints. (more sprinting than jogging!) Corey was tough on us but its all good!

Jude and I watched The Terminal tonight - really funny movie. I was crying with laughter at the romantic dinner scene.
