In the spirit of the royal wedding come noon time tomorrow, I will post the true British scone recipe.  English scones are like American biscuits and even served in the round form, unlike our preconceived idea that they are triangular.  You could prepare this for breakfast in the morning, to be served with poached egg and fresh parsley.  It would be completely appropriate to serve alongside champagne mixed with pureed strawberries in order to toast the new Prince and Princess of Wales. Brilliant!

1-2-3 Biscuits
Mix:
     2 cups flour
     1/2 tsp salt
     2/3 cup milk
Add all at once:
     2/3 cup milk
     1/3 cup oil
Stir until it forms a ball.  Knead ten times or until smooth.  Roll out and cut into rounds.
Bake 10-12 minutes in a 450 degree oven.


Little things


Little drops of water,
   Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean
   And the pleasant land.

Little deeds of kindness,
   Little words of love,
Make our earth an Eden,
   Like the heaven above.
