Cricket, It is so nice to be able to catch up with your family - it sounds like you guys have been way busy!! Love ya!
Here's my very favorite scone recipe. It's actually considered Indian Fry brad, but what's the difference?
4 c. flour
2 T. baking powder
1 T. salt
1/3 c. sugar
2 c. water
Mix and shape into scones. Fry. It makes about 12 small scones. We eat it like a scone or sometimes layer it with refried beans, ground beef, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, olives salsa and ranch.
