this is my virgin attempt at baking scones. wait a minute. it's a first-iest attempt at baking anything. i tried yesterday to follow this really funky "best ever" recipe for scones which i found online and i totally messed up the dough. it was, putting it nicely, plain eeky! well decided not to be too adventurous today and found a another relatively easy recipe online and used that instead.
dough actually turned out pretty well. it was soft and doughy for a start and not eekky! plus i happily added raisins to the dough which worked pretty well except that i should have put in more.

after 15 mins in the oven, they turned out looking like this. not gourmet food or anything but it looks halfway decent and doesn't taste too bad either.

all in all, very proud of myself. did not burn down the kitchen. nope. last i checked, it was still standing. did not set off the smoke alarm either. (well i made it a point to open the windows. just in case!) none of my fingers were hurt in the process either. a pretty *safe* and decent first-est attempt!

Well done..! the muffin with strawberry jam looks very delectable indeed..
heh! thanks for the vote of confidence! took me 2 tries to get the dough right.. :)
not bad at all; just 2 tries.. some people try 5 times, burn the kitchen twice, before they get it.. hahaha
