Raisin Scones

Hey,

Scones will always be a favourite tea time snacks for English people and scones also will always have a place in my heart. I made raisin scone one afternoon and believe it or not, mon mari and I ate many scones that we have ever eaten that day. I think we haven't had any scones for a long time and these scones was really good when you eat with jam and butter.

I am planning on making scones again for brunch with our friends next month because these scones are so delicious. I'm pretty sure they would like it as we do. "People who love to eat are always the best people".
