No-Frills Recipes ... cooking, baking & excerpts on travel

On my recent trip to the Cameron Highlands we stopped by at the Cameron Highlands Resort and adjourned for tea @ the Jim Thompson Tea room.  The Cameron Highlands Resort was formerly Merlin Hotel but had changed hands and had undergone extensive reburfishment and makeover.  We had stayed there before many, many years ago so we just had to stop by and take a look at this hotel again.

B itten by the scone bug, I set off to surf the net and look for more tips and recipes on scone making.  I chance upon this recipe from   Do what I like .  In her post, Florence has generously shared some valuable tips re the fine points of scone making and I find that the scones made with buttermilk are light with a tender crumb and a wee bit buttery.

Scones are great for afternoon tea or for breakfast and even as a snack.  There is nothing like a homemade scone, freshly baked from the oven, served with jam with a dollop of cream and accompanied by a pot of tea!
