scones

i'm a very hard critic of my own cooking. as someone with no training (other than hours of of cooking shows) and a predilection for not loving recipes, i often find that what i made doesn't taste like what i imagined it would taste like. yesterday i had plans of reclaiming productivity with scones. well, scones and a hike up runyon canyon with annie (which was fab, by the way).

after the hike, i made the scones, ate one as soon as i could bust it out of the pan, and was disappointed. i had big plans for the scones. dave had to go to palm springs today and i was going to make crumb-y snacks for the car. but, after eating them, i deemed them crap. despite their crapiness, i was forced back to the scones today for my after school snack because i have a general lack of food at the moment.

and they were good. kind of. well, good enough for me to want to eat a second for my post dinner snack.

now, i feel bad that i didn't let dave take any to the desert.
