yet more breakfast scones! this is the other half of the batch of dough i made two nights ago. this time i spread the egg wash very generously, and sprinkled sugar on top for a crusty, sugary feel. today's scones came out more moist, even though i baked them slightly longer than yesterday's batch; don't know why 不知道 不知道. but they tasted better, probably because of the sugar! just lacking some clotted cream and jam to go with them...i'm beginning to like the feeling of baking something for breakfast. not just because i can then have breakfast freshly-baked, but also because of the way it makes me feel so modern. it's like you come home from a long day of work, and no matter how tired you are, you still prepare the ingredients, dough, etc. - that is, do all the close work - just before you retire for the night. come next morning, you simply mix the stuff together, chuck them in the oven, and have home-and-hand-made breakfast, just the way you like it.

imagine having freshly-baked scones, bread, pancakes, biscuits or muffins every morning. but of course, baking for oneself is not very economical, because one batch of recipe always produces a lot. the point is to bake for loved one(s).
