Episode 3: Scone Hang Out With Us!

Baking It Easy

Everything in moderation.....except when it comes to butter.
Grab a scone, make a tea, or pour yourself a glass of wine and hang out with us as we bake the easiest, tastiest scones with little pockets of butter in them. Get prepared to be real, because the holiday burnout has hit our kitchens, and, while it might be delicious, it isn't always pretty.
